What are the uses of alloys in daily life and how are alloys made?

Every metal thing you use in your daily life is made from an alloy. Alloying metals can make a metal that exactly meets your needs - if you need a metal that melts at 100 degrees C, or one that's harder than granite, alloying will let you fill your requirements.

Making an alloy is a three-step procedure. Metallurgists and engineers will determine the need for a new metal, its characteristics, and the mixture of base metals that will meet the requirements of the new metal in the most economical manner. Next, they will make a small batch of the alloy in a laboratory and test it to see if it works the way they want. If it does, they'll go to a metal plant and make a large batch to see if it works like it did from the small batch.
