low-ing alloys, which are the strongest of their respective groups, the tinis always four times the quantity of the other metal; and they allconfirm the circumstance, of the alloys having mostly a greaterdegree of cohesion than the stronger of their component metals. Alloys. Cast Metals. 4 English… … * This, in truth, is an exception; it barely equals in strength the alloys with 8 and 2parts of tin to 1 of zinc, but is superior to that of equal parts: it corroborates the greatincrease of strength in alloys generally.
