Alloy steels usually containing 10–35% chromium. Chromium, together with low carbon content, gives resistance to corrosion and heat. Other elements, such as nickel, titanium, aluminium, copper, nitrogen, molybdenum, titanium, sulphur, niobium, phosphorus, and selenium, are added to increase corrosion resistance to certain environments, enhance resistance to oxidation and produce special characteristics.

Brass is a tough yellow gleaming metal that is an alloy of zinc and copper. Can have the addition of other metallic elements to impart specific properties
Copper is a supple, reddish-brown metallic element that is a good conductor of electricity and heat. Used for coatings, alloys, and wiring
Tin is silvery in colour effortlessly shaped metallic element. Used in alloys such as solder, bronze, and pewter, protective coating for steel. Known best for a seal for food and drink containers, made of thin sheet metal coated with tin or of other thin metal such as aluminium.
Nickel is a tough corrosion-resistant silvery-white metallic element. Use in batteries, electroplating, catalyst and alloys.
Titanium is a strong, lightweight, corrosion-resistant silvery metallic element. Used in many manufacturing industries including the car and aerospace industry.
Silver is a gleaming greyish to white metallic element that has the highest thermal and electrical conductivity of any substance. Used in ornaments, jewellery, coins, solders, and conductors.
Gold is a pliable, weighty, corrosion-resistant, yellow metallic element that has a high value. It is found underground in veins and alluvial deposits. Used in jewellery and alloys.
Platinum is a valuable silvery-white metallic element, highly pliable and flexible and highly resistant to chemicals and heat. Used in jewellery, catalyst, electroplating.
