Material deterioration caused during service life led to the development of erosive/corrosive resistant materials. The present work focuses on characterization of an alloy, naval brass, developed by microwave hybrid heating method, which is a vital material used in ship building/ marine industry. Mechanism of melting of metals by microwave hybrid heating technique is presented in the article. Microstructural study reveals formation of alpha and beta phases, with negligible porosity. X-Ray Diffraction study reveals the presence of CuZn phase in the developed alloy. Further, tensile and microhardness characteristics of the cast alloy holds good with the properties that must be exhibited by the specified standard material.
