Tin bronze yeeb nkab muaj qhov zoo corrosion tsis kam, zoo dua li cov hlau tsis zoo, thiab zoo dua li aluminium hauv alkaline cua. Qhov muaj peev xwm txuas ntxiv ntawm tooj liab yog 40.34V, uas yog siab dua hydrogen, thiab nws yog cov hlau uas muaj cov peev xwm zoo dua. Kev xeb ntawm tooj liab hauv dej tshiab kuj tseem tsawg heev (kwv yees 0.05mm / a). Thiab thaum cov kav dej tooj liab yog siv los thauj cov kav dej, tsis muaj cov ntxhia tso rau ntawm cov yeeb nkab phab ntsa, uas nyob deb dhau qhov ncav tsis tau ntawm cov kav xa dej hlau. Vim tias cov yam ntxwv no, ntau ntawm cov kav dej tooj liab, tus kais dej thiab lwm yam khoom siv tau siv hauv cov khoom siv dej ua kom huv huv.
Tooj liab tiv taus rau cov cua xeb, thiab nws tuaj yeem tsim cov yeeb yaj kiab tiv thaiv tsuas yog muaj li ntawm tooj liab sulfate rau saum npoo, uas yog, patina. Yog li ntawv, tooj liab yog siv rau kev tsim cov vaj tse ru tsev, dej nag kav dej, kav dej sab saud thiab qis dua, txuas rau yeeb; tshuaj lom neeg thiab chaw ntim tshuaj, cov tshuaj tiv thaiv, cov roj lim; cov khoom siv nkoj, cov khoom xa tawm, lub neej thiab kev tua hluav taws sib txuas cov yeeb nkab sib txuas; xuas nrig ntaus hom npib (kev ua hauj corrosion), kho kom zoo nkauj, puav pheej, khoom plig, kos duab thiab xuas tes ua (xeb tsis kam thiab xim zoo nkauj), thiab lwm yam.
