Etymology: French aloi, from Old French alei, from aleir to combine, from Latin alligare to bind -- more at ALLY
1 : the degree of mixture with base metals : FINENESS
2 : a substance composed of two or more metals or of a metal and a nonmetal intimately united usually by being fused together and dissolving in each other when molten; also : the state of union of the components
3 a : an admixture that lessens value b : an impairing alien element

An alloy is a combination, either in solution or compound, of two or more elements, at least one of which is a metal, and where the resulting material has metallic properties. The resulting metallic substance usually has different properties (sometimes significantly different) from those of its components. Steel is a metal alloy whose major component is iron, with carbon content between 0.02% and 1.7% by mass. - 1 Properties

| Alloys are usually prepared to improve on the properties of their components. For instance, Steel, is stronger than iron, its primary component. The physical properties of an alloy, such as density, reactivity and electrical and thermal conductivity may not differ greatly from the alloy's elements, but engineering properties, such as tensile strength, shear strength and Young's modulus, can be substantially different from those of the constituent materials. This is sometimes due to the differing sizes of the atoms in the alloy—larger atoms exert a compressive force on neighbouring atoms, and smaller atoms exert a tensile force on their neighbours. This helps the alloy resist deformation, unlike a pure metal where the atoms move more freely. Unlike pure metals, most alloys do not have a single melting point. Instead, they have a melting range in which the material is a mixture of solid and liquid phases. The temperature at which melting begins is called the solidus, and that at which melting is complete is called the liquidus. However, for most pairs of elements, there is a particular ratio which has a single melting point; this is called the eutectic mixture. Alloys can be classified by the number of the..."
