Tin
Tin is a soft metal and has a low melting point of 232 °C. Tin is mainly used as an alloying element in bronze and solders, as well as for the production of transparent, electrically conductive layers of indium tin oxide (ITO) for optoelectronic applications.

Zinc
Zinc is used for corrosion protection of iron and steel products by galvanizing, since it forms weather-resistant zinc oxide and carbonate layers when exposed to air. Otherwise, it is used for alloys such as brass or aluminum-zinc alloys. In rechargeable batteries, metallic zinc is one of the most important anode materials.
