The atomic structure of a pure metal is orderly and allows electrons to flow freely through the material. Bell metal is a hard alloy used for making bells and related instruments, such as cymbals. It is a form of bronze with a higher tin content. Bronze also has nautical applications because of its resistance to corrosion. Bronzes of various metallurgical properties are widely used in struck idiophones around the world, notably bells, singing bowls, gongs, cymbals, and other idiophones.
