Technical specifications

It is a dense silvery-pink metal, was discovered in the beginning of the 16th century, its name derives from the German words «white mass». It is a brittle metal, therefore it is usually used in alloys with other metals. Its alloys with tin or cadmium have a low melting point and are used in fire fuses and fire extinguishers and in special solders.
