Stainless steel is a value added engineering product with high corrosion resistant properties, primarily due to the presence of a minimum of 10.5% chromium. This chromium combines with oxygen to form a chrome-oxide surface layer that prevents further oxidation, which results in staining or rusting of a surface. Higher levels of chromium and additions of other alloy elements such as nickel and molybdenum enhance the quality of surface layer and improve the corrosion resistance of the stainless material. Stainless steel today has varied end-uses in utensils, household wares, automobiles, architecture, building, construction, surgical equipment, industrial applications, marine applications and railway wagons.
