Zinc is a metal that is
brittle at ordinary temperatures but malleable at temperatures above 100°C. It
is corrosion resistant and this property is exploited in its chief use as a
steel coat-ing (galvanising). Its other main uses are as zinc die-castings and
alloyed with copper to make brass, which is widely used in the electrical,
engineering and construction industries.
