stainless steel

stainless steel:

• Stainless steel has a lot of chromium in its composition.
• The minimum chromium used in stainless steel is about 11%.
• This chromium gives the plain steel its corrosion resistance.
• By adding other elements such as molybdenum, nickel and nitrogen, this metal increases its resistance to corrosion and heat resistance.
• In order for this type of steel to react against rust and work well, the amount of chromium used in it should not be less than this amount. Because the presence of chromium strengthens steel’s resistance to rust.

Applications of stainless steel:

• kitchen gear
• Kitchen sinks
• Forks and knives
• Use of steel in the medical industry
• Surgical implants
• Temporary veneers in (dentistry)
• Architecture and application of stainless steel in construction
• Construction of bridges

Types of stainless steel:

• Martensitic
• Ferritic
• Austenitic
• Austenitic-ferritic or two-phase
• Precipitation-Hardening or PH
