Zinc has an even lower melting point (420°C) and is able to form mixed crystals with copper. By combining copper with zinc, an alloy is formed, which is harder than copper, but still has very good working properties. ... Bronze is also a copper alloy; however, it contains the heavy metal tin instead of zinc.Jan 16, 2018
