    Sara Riddle
    CuZn10 is a copper-zinc alloy commonly used for jewelry, metal goods, and electronic components. It has good electrical and thermal conductivity as well as excellent corrosion resistance to fresh water, neutral/alkaline solutions, and many organic compounds and industrial atmospheres. CuZn10 has a golden color and is the most corrosion resistant of the gilding metals. It can be machined, cold worked, electroplated, and soft soldered. Typical applications include jewelry, badges, and electrical contacts.
