Abstract
Mechanical and damping properties of sparingly alloyed bell bronzes are studied. Advantages of such bronzes over classical bell bronzes with respect to the strength and ductility are shown. Recommendations are given on the use of the studied alloys for the production of bells and other percussion instruments.
