A systematic study on the development of a set of Sn–Cu–Sb alloys and their characteristics, such as phases evolved, mechanical properties, physical properties, and microstructures, that are commonly sought for making pewter is presented. Alloys with various nominal compositions of Sn–Cu (1–3%)–Sb (...
