Alloying elements are added to alter the hardness, strength, and toughness of a metallic element, thus obtaining properties not found in a pure metal. Alloys may also be classified on the basis of their behavior when solidified.A metallic substance (e.g., brass) resulting from the fusion or mixture of two or more metals.A metallic compound consisting of a combination of two or more distinct metals."}
