Does Gallium (liquid or solid) corrode all forms of brass?

I know that it corrodes copper, but does it do the same to all brass or bronze compositions?




From [here](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_metal) 



> 
> Gallium is corrosive to all metals except tungsten and tantalum, which have a high resistance to corrosion.

Beta-Brass is [embrittled](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_metal_embrittlement) by [Gallium](http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/0956716X9090573Y)


Due to its highly reducing character it is highly corrosive material.

I had looked at more direct sources from the Wikipedia link that was provided in the previous answer to this question. On page 99 of the 1954 version of "Liquid-Metals Handbook", there is a chart that might answer your question better:

The next two pages from the the same book gives more information about the other chemicals that leads me to believe that the Wikipedia article might be misquoting the information.
