		Second, we have all read statements such as, “Gilding metal can be fired no more than two times,” or “Platinum can not be enameled because it has a terrific expansion.” Such statements were based on observations of a limited range of materials.
		It is obvious the melting point of a pure metal or the solidus (temperature at which an alloy has completed solidification) of an alloy must be somewhat higher than the firing temperature of the enamel.

	Alloy Summary
		This is necessary both because most raw metals exist as chemical compounds in rocks and because the balance of ingredients in a useful alloy must be precise.
		In a given alloy, one metal is usually present in higher concentration than any other element; this is termed the parent metal or solvent of the alloy.
		In practice, some alloys are used so predominantly with respect to their base metals that the name of the primary constituent is also used as the name of the alloy.
