Poster Print : Copper, zinc and brass
Poster Prints from Science Photo Library
Copper, zinc and brass
Copper, zinc and brass (from left to right). Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. It can contain from 20-45 percent of zinc, depending on the type of brass. Brass is easily shaped (malleable) and is a good electrical conductor. Copper and zinc are both transition metal elements. Zinc is also used in batteries and paints. A major use of zinc is in galvanizing: coating other metals to protect them from corrosion. Copper is also used to manufacture coins, in plumbing, dyes and chemical catalysts

Bring the beauty of metallurgy into your space with Media Storehouse's stunning Poster Prints. This captivating image, "Copper, Zinc and Brass" from Science Photo Library, showcases the visual allure of these three metals. Brass, an alloy of copper and zinc, is depicted here with varying percentages of zinc, resulting in its distinctive hue. Elevate your home or office décor with this educational and visually appealing poster, a perfect conversation starter for science enthusiasts and metallurgy aficionados alike.
A2 Poster (59.4 x 42cm, 23.4" x 16.5" inches) printed on 170gsm Satin Poster Paper. Securely packaged, rolled and inserted into a strong mailing tube and shipped tracked. Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.
Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.
Estimated Product Size is 59.4cm x 42cm (23.4" x 16.5")

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the beauty and versatility of copper, zinc, and brass. From left to right, we see these three remarkable metals in all their glory. Brass, a stunning alloy of copper and zinc, can vary in its composition with zinc content ranging from 20-45 percent depending on the type. Known for its malleability and excellent electrical conductivity, brass is highly sought after for various applications. Transition metal elements at heart, both copper and zinc possess unique properties that make them indispensable in different industries. Zinc finds extensive use in batteries and paints while also playing a crucial role in galvanizing processes where it coats other metals to shield them against corrosion. Copper's significance cannot be overstated either; this versatile metal is employed in coin manufacturing as well as plumbing systems due to its exceptional durability. Additionally, it serves as an essential component for dyes and chemical catalysts. The carefully arranged strips and sheets of these elements create a visually striking image that highlights their shining surfaces. Each element represents a distinct part of the chemistry world – compounds, alloys, transition metals – all coming together harmoniously within this photograph. Science Photo Library has expertly captured the essence of these materials through meticulous cleaning and polishing techniques resulting in a pristine display of their true potential. This print stands as a testament to the incredible contributions made by copper, zinc, and brass across numerous fields without mentioning any specific commercial uses but rather celebrating their inherent qualities.
