Key Properties of Stainless Steel:

• Oxidation Resistance: Stainless steel resists oxidation, maintaining its structural integrity even in high-temperature environments.

• Acid Resistance: It can withstand exposure to various acids without corroding.

• Base Resistance: Stainless steel exhibits resistance to bases and alkaline substances.

• Organic Resistance: It is highly resistant to organic materials and compounds.

• Electricity: Stainless steel has good electrical conductivity properties.

• Magnetism: Depending on the alloy composition, some stainless steels are non-magnetic.

Stainless steel comes in various grades and surface finishes, each tailored to specific environmental conditions and applications. It is chosen when the combination of steel properties and corrosion resistance is essential.

Different types of stainless steels exist, and the addition of elements like nickel stabilizes the austenite structure of iron, making such steels virtually non-magnetic and less brittle at low temperatures. By adding more carbon, stainless steels can achieve greater hardness and strength, making them suitable for products like razor blades, cutlery, and tools.
