Stainless steel – it is the general description of such type of steel, where at least 12% of chromium and variable amount of Ni, Mo, C, and Ti make its composition.
When comparing these types of steel to other types, the common thing is that they are highly resistive to corrosion in oxidizing environments.
Stainless steel has been started to use just in the end of the World War I, primarily it was used for machine constructions and in the chemical industry.
At present, the stainless steel can be very widely used – from tools used for the daily needs to very different components in the food industry, precision industry, car industry, etc.
The main types of stainless steel are ferritic, martensitic, austenitic and austenitic-ferritic.
