roostevabale
Roostevabale, often referred to as stainless steel, is a group of steel alloys that contain a minimum of 10.5% chromium by mass. This chromium content is key to its defining characteristic: resistance to corrosion and rust. When exposed to oxygen, the chromium in the alloy forms a thin, passive, and invisible layer of chromium oxide on the surface. This layer acts as a protective barrier, preventing further oxidation of the underlying metal.
The composition of stainless steel can vary significantly, with different grades offering unique properties. Common alloying
Stainless steel is widely used across numerous industries due to its durability, hygiene, and aesthetic appeal.
