Phosphor bronze (Rinseido) (English spelling) phosphor bronze

Japanese: リン青銅(燐青銅) - りんせいどう(英語表記)phosphor bronze
Phosphor bronze (Rinseido) (English spelling) phosphor bronze
A type of bronze. There are three types of bronze: those in which phosphorus is used to deoxidize the bronze so that almost no phosphorus remains in the alloy, those in which some phosphorus is added to bronze with 10% or less tin so that phosphorus remains, and those in which 0.05 to 0.5% phosphorus is added to bronze with 10% or more tin. The first two are used as wrought materials, and the latter for castings. Phosphor bronze, which is 8% tin and 0.03 to 0.35% phosphorus, is mainly processed into plates and is widely used as an excellent spring material. Phosphor bronze castings are also corrosion-resistant, hard, and wear-resistant, so they are used for machine parts and paper-making rolls.

青銅の一種。青銅の脱酸にリンを用いて合金の中にほとんどリンが残っていないもの,スズ10%以下の青銅に多少リンを加えてリンが残るようにしたもの,スズ10%以上の青銅に0.05~0.5%のリンを加えたものがある。前2者は展伸材として,後者は鋳物用として使用される。スズ8%,リン0.03~0.35%のリン青銅はおもに板に加工され,すぐれたばね材料として広く使われている。また,リン青銅鋳物は耐食性に加えて,硬さが大で耐摩耗性がよいので,機械部品や製紙用ロールなどに用いられる。
