Stainless steel
In metallurgy, stainless steel, also known as inox steel or
inox from French inoxydable (inoxidizable), is a steel alloy
with a minimum of 10.5% chromium content by mass.[1]
Stainless steel differs from carbon steel due to the presence of chromium. Unprotected carbon steel rusts readily when
exposed to the combination of air and moisture. The resulting iron oxide surface layer (the rust) is porous and fragile.
Since iron oxide occupies a larger volume than the original steel this layer expands and tends to flake and fall away
exposing the underlying steel to further attack. In comparison, stainless steels contain sufficient chromium to undergo
passivation, spontaneously forming a microscopically thin inert surface film of chromium oxide by reaction with the
oxygen in air and even the small amount of dissolved oxygen in water. This passive film prevents further corrosion by
blocking oxygen diffusion to the steel surface and thus prevents corrosion from spreading into the bulk of the metal.[2]
This film is self-repairing if it is scratched or temporarily disturbed by an upset condition in the environment that exceeds
the inherent corrosion resistance of that grade[3][2] Thus stainless steels are used where both the strength of steel and
corrosion resistance are required.
Stainless steel’s resistance to corrosion and staining, low maintenance, and familiar lustre make it an ideal material for
many applications. Stainless steels are rolled into sheets, plates, bars, wire, and tubing to be used in cookware, cutlery,
surgical instruments, major appliances and as construction material in large buildings, such as the Chrysler Building. As
well as, industrial equipment (for example, in paper mills, chemical plants, water treatment), and storage tanks and
tankers for chemicals and food products (for example, chemical tankers and road tankers). Stainless steels corrosion
resistance, the ease with which it can be steam cleaned and sterilized and no need for other surface coatings has also
influenced its use in commercial kitchens and food processing plants.

Corrosion resistance
Stainless steels do not suffer uniform corrosion, like carbon steel, when
exposed to wet environments. However, they may suffer uniform corrosion
when exposed to acidic or basic solutions. Whether a stainless steel corrodes
depends on the kind and concentration of acid or base, and the solution
temperature. Uniform corrosion is typically easy to avoid because of extensive
published corrosion data or easy to perform laboratory testing. Unfortunately,
stainless steels are susceptible to localized corrosion under certain conditions,
which need to be recognized and avoided. Such localized corrosion is
problematic for stainless steels because it is unexpected and more difficult to

copper-nickel alloys (middle row)
Acids
Acidic solutions can be categorized into two general categories, reducing acids
such as hydrochloric acid and dilute sulfuric acid, and oxidizing acids such as nitric acid and concentrated sulfuric acid.
Increasing chromium and molybdenum contents provide increasing resistance to reducing acids, while increasing
chromium and silicon contents provide increasing resistance to oxidizing acids.

Hydrochloric acid will damage any kind of stainless steel, and should be
avoided.[6][7]
All types of stainless steel resist attack from phosphoric acid and nitric acid at Stainless steel is not completely
room temperature. At high concentration and elevated temperature attack will immune to corrosion in this
occur and higher alloy stainless steels are required.[8] [9] Concentrated sulfuric desalination equipment
acid possesses oxidizing characteristics like nitric acid and thus silicon bearing
stainless steels also find application.
In general, organic acids are less corrosive than mineral acids such as hydrochloric and sulfuric acid. As the molecular
weight of organic acids increase their corrosivity decreases. Formic acid has the lowest molecular weight and is a strong
acid. Type 304 can be used with formic acid though it will tend to discolor the solution. Acetic acid is probably the most
commercially important of the organic acids and Type 316 is commonly used for storing and handling acetic acid.[10]
Bases
Stainless steels Type 304 and 316 are unaffected by any of the weak bases such as ammonium hydroxide, even in high
concentrations and at high temperatures. The same grades of stainless exposed to stronger bases such as sodium
hydroxide at high concentrations and high temperatures will likely experience some etching and cracking.[11]
Organics
All grades resist damage from aldehydes and amines, though in the latter case grade 316 is preferable to 304; cellulose
acetate will damage 304 unless the temperature is kept low. Fats and fatty acids only affect grade 304 at temperatures
above 150 °C (302 °F), and grade 316 above 260 °C (500 °F), while 317 is unaffected at all temperatures. Type 316L is
required for processing of urea.[6]
Localized corrosion
Localized corrosion can occur in a number of ways, e.g. pitting corrosion, crevice corrosion and stress corrosion cracking.
Such localized attack is most common in the presence of chloride ions. Increasing chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen
contents provide increasing resistance to localized corrosion and thus increasing chloride levels require more highly
alloyed stainless steels. In general, higher chromium, molybdenum and nitrogen contents provide greater resistance to
localized corrosion. Design and good fabrication techniques combined with correct alloy selection can prevent such
corrosion.[12]
Localized corrosion can be difficult to predict because it is dependent on many factors including:
Chloride ion concentration (Unfortunately, even when the chloride solution concentration is known, it is still possible
for chloride ions to concentrate, such as in crevices (e.g. under gaskets) or on surfaces in vapor spaces due to
evaporation and condensation.)
Increasing temperature increases susceptibility

Oxidation
High oxidation resistance in air at ambient temperature is normally achieved with addition of a minimum of 13% (by
weight) chromium, and up to 26% is used for harsh environments.[13] The chromium forms a passivation layer of
chromium(III) oxide (Cr2O3) when exposed to oxygen. The layer is too thin to be visible, and the metal remains lustrous
and smooth. However, the layer does become visible when the temperatures are increased, first as colorful rainbow hues
(depending on alloying elements, temperature, time, and atmosphere), later as a rough, dull, mostly brown surface due to
the increased size of the metal oxide crystals.[14] The layer is impervious to water and air, protecting the metal beneath,
and this layer quickly reforms when the surface is scratched. This phenomenon is called passivation and is seen in other
metals, such as aluminium and titanium.
Properties
History
The corrosion resistance of iron-chromium alloys was first recognized in 1821 by French metallurgist Pierre Berthier, who
noted their resistance against attack by some acids and suggested their use in cutlery. Metallurgists of the 19th century
were unable to produce the combination of low carbon and high chromium found in most modern stainless steels, and the
high-chromium alloys they could produce were too brittle to be practical.

In 1872, the Englishmen Clark and Woods patented an alloy that would today
be considered a stainless steel.[17]
In the beginning stainless steel was sold in the US under different brand names like "Allegheny metal" and "Nirosta steel".
Even within the metallurgy industry the eventual name remained unsettled; in 1921 one trade journal was calling it
"unstainable steel".[26] In 1929, before the Great Depression hit, over 25,000 tons of stainless steel were manufactured and
sold in the US.[27]
When nickel is added, the austenite structure of iron is stabilized. This crystal structure
makes such steels virtually non-magnetic and less brittle at low temperatures.

Significant quantities of manganese have been used in many stainless steel compositions.
Manganese preserves an austenitic structure in the steel, similar to nickel, but at a lower
cost.
For greater hardness and strength, more carbon is added. With proper heat treatment,
these steels are used for such products as razor blades, cutlery, and tools.
300 Series. The most widely used austenite steel is the 304, also known as 18/8 for its composition of 18%
chromium and 8% nickel.[29] 304 may be referred to as A2 stainless (not to be confused with AISI grade A2 air
hardening alloy tool steel containing about 5% chromium). The second most common austenite steel is the 316
grade, also referred to as A4 stainless and called marine grade stainless, used primarily for its increased
resistance to corrosion. A typical composition of 18% chromium and 10% nickel, commonly known as 18/10
stainless, is often used in cutlery and high-quality cookware. 18/0 is also available.
Superaustenitic stainless steels, such as Allegheny Ludlum alloy AL-6XN and 254SMO, exhibit
great resistance to chloride pitting and crevice corrosion because of high molybdenum content
(>6%) and nitrogen additions, and the higher nickel content ensures better resistance to stress-
corrosion cracking versus the 300 series. The higher alloy content of superaustenitic steels
makes them more expensive. Other steels can offer similar performance at lower cost and are
preferred in certain applications. For example ASTM A387 is used in pressure vessels but is a
low-alloy carbon steel with a chromium content of 0.5% to 9%.[30] Low-carbon versions, for
example 316L or 304L, are used to avoid corrosion problems caused by welding. Grade
316LVM is preferred where biocompatibility is required (such as body implants and
piercings).[31] The "L" means that the carbon content of the alloy is below 0.03%, which reduces
the sensitization effect (precipitation of chromium carbides at grain boundaries) caused by the
high temperatures involved in welding.

The properties of duplex stainless steels are achieved with an overall lower alloy content than
similar-performing super-austenitic grades, making their use cost-effective for many
applications. Duplex grades are characterized into groups based on their alloy content and
corrosion resistance.
Lean duplex refers to grades such as UNS S32101 (LDX 2101), S32202 (UR2202), S32304, and S32003.
Standard duplex refers to grades with 22% chromium, such as UNS S31803/S32205, with 2205 being the most
widely used.
Super duplex is by definition a duplex stainless steel with a Pitting Resistance Equivalent Number (PREN) >
40, where PREN = %Cr + 3.3x(%Mo + 0.5x%W) + 16x%N. Usually super duplex grades have 25% or more
chromium. Some common examples are S32760 (Zeron 100 via Rolled Alloys), S32750 (2507), and S32550
(Ferralium 255 via Langley Alloys).
Hyper duplex refers to duplex grades with a PRE > 48. UNS S32707 and S33207 are the only grades currently
available on the market.
Precipitation-hardening martensitic stainless steels have corrosion resistance comparable to austenitic varieties, but
can be precipitation hardened to even higher strengths than the other martensitic grades. The most common, 17-
4PH, uses about 17% chromium and 4% nickel.
The designation "CRES" is used in various industries to refer to corrosion-resistant steel. Most mentions of CRES refer to
stainless steel, although the correspondence is not absolute, because there are other materials that are corrosion-resistant
but not stainless steel.[32]
Grades
There are over 150 grades of stainless steel, of which 15 are most commonly used. There are a number of systems for
grading stainless and other steels, including US SAE steel grades.

Standard finishes
Standard mill finishes can be applied to flat rolled stainless steel directly by the rollers
and by mechanical abrasives. Steel is first rolled to size and thickness and then
annealed to change the properties of the final material. Any oxidation that forms on the
surface (mill scale) is removed by pickling, and a passivation layer is created on the
surface. A final finish can then be applied to achieve the desired aesthetic appearance.
Applications
Architecture
Stainless steel is used for buildings for both practical and aesthetic reasons. Stainless
steel was in vogue during the art deco period. The most famous example of this is the
upper portion of the Chrysler Building (pictured). Some diners and fast-food
restaurants use large ornamental panels and stainless fixtures and furniture. Because of
the durability of the material, many of these buildings still retain their original
appearance. Stainless steel is used today in building construction because of its
durability and because it is a weldable building metal that can be made into
aesthetically pleasing shapes. An example of a building in which these properties are
exploited is the Art Gallery of Alberta in Edmonton, which is wrapped in stainless steel.

The Helix Bridge is a pedestrian bridge linking Marina Centre with Marina South in the
Marina Bay area in Singapore.
Cala Galdana Bridge in Menorca (Spain) was the first stainless steel road bridge.

Padre Arrupe Bridge (Bilbao, Spain) links the Guggenheim museum to the
University of Deusto.[35]
Water
Stainless steels have a long history of application in contact with water[37] due to their excellent corrosion resistance.
Applications include a range of conditions from plumbing[38], potable[39] and waste water treatment[40] to desalination[41].
Types 304 and 316 stainless steels are standard materials of construction in contact with water. However, with increasing
chloride contents higher alloyed stainless steels such as Type 2205 and super austenitic and super duplex stainless steels
are utilized.

A wide range stainless steels are used throughout the paper making process.
For example, duplex stainless steels are being used in digesters to convert
wood chips into wood pulp. 6% Mo superaustenitics are used in the bleach
plant and Type 316 is used extensively in the paper machine. Stainless steel is used for industrial
equipment when durability and
cleanability are important
Locomotion
Automotive bodies
The Allegheny Ludlum Corporation worked with Ford on various concept cars with stainless steel bodies from the 1930s
through the 1970s to demonstrate the material's potential. The 1957 and 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham had a stainless
steel roof. In 1981 and 1982, the DeLorean DMC-12 production automobile used Type-304 stainless steel body panels over
a glass-reinforced plastic monocoque. Intercity buses made by Motor Coach Industries are partially made of stainless
steel. The aft body panel of the Porsche Cayman model (2-door coupe hatchback) is made of stainless steel. It was
discovered during early body prototyping that conventional steel could not be formed without cracking (due to the many
curves and angles in that automobile). Thus, Porsche was forced to use stainless steel on the Cayman.
Some automotive manufacturers use stainless steel as decorative highlights in their vehicles.
Rail cars have commonly been manufactured using corrugated stainless steel panels (for additional structural strength).
This was particularly popular during the 1960s and 1970s, but has since declined. One notable example was the early
Pioneer Zephyr. Notable former manufacturers of stainless steel rolling stock included the Budd Company (USA), which
has been licensed to Japan's Tokyu Car Corporation, and the Portuguese company Sorefame. Many railcars in the United
States are still manufactured with stainless steel, unlike other countries who have shifted away.
Aircraft
Budd also built two airplanes, the Budd BB-1 Pioneer and the Budd RB-1 Conestoga, of stainless steel tube and sheet. The
first, which had fabric wing coverings, is on display at the Franklin Institute, being the longest continuous display of an
aircraft ever, since 1934. The RB-2 Was almost all stainless steel, save for the control surfaces. One survives at the Pima
Air & Space Museum, adjacent to Davis–Monthan Air Force Base.
The American Fleetwings Sea Bird amphibious aircraft of 1936 was also built using a spot-welded stainless steel hull.
Due to its thermal stability, the Bristol Aeroplane Company built the all-stainless steel Bristol 188 high-speed research
aircraft, which first flew in 1963. However, the practical problems encountered meant that Concorde employed aluminium
alloys.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stainless_steel 11/16
1/29/2018 Stainless steel - Wikipedia
The use of stainless steel in mainstream aircraft is hindered by its excessive weight compared to other materials, such as
aluminium.
Medicine
Surgical tools and medical equipment are usually made of stainless steel, because of its durability and ability to be
sterilized in an autoclave. In addition, surgical implants such as bone reinforcements and replacements (e.g. hip sockets
and cranial plates) are made with special alloys formulated to resist corrosion, mechanical wear, and biological reactions
in vivo.
Stainless steel is used in a variety of applications in dentistry. It is common to use stainless steel in many instruments that
need to be sterilized, such as needles,[44] endodontic files in root canal therapy, metal posts in root canal–treated teeth,
temporary crowns and crowns for deciduous teeth, and arch wires and brackets in orthodontics.[45] The surgical stainless
steel alloys (e.g., 316 low-carbon steel) have also been used in some of the early dental implants.[46]
Culinary use
Stainless steel is often preferred for kitchen sinks because of its ruggedness, durability, heat resistance, and ease of
cleaning. In better models, acoustic noise is controlled by applying resilient undercoating to dampen vibrations. The
material is also used for cladding of surfaces such as appliances and backsplashes.
Cookware and bakeware may be clad in stainless steels, to enhance their cleanability and durability, and to permit their
use in induction cooking (this requires a magnetic grade of stainless steel, such as 432). Because stainless steel is a poor
conductor of heat, it is often used as a thin surface cladding over a core of copper or aluminium, which conduct heat more
readily.
Cutlery is normally stainless steel,[47] for low corrosion, ease of cleaning, negligible toxicity, as well as not flavoring the
food by electrolytic activity.
Jewelry
Stainless steel is used for jewelry and watches, with 316L being the type commonly used for such applications. It can be re-
finished by any jeweler and will not oxidize or turn black.
Valadium, a stainless steel and 12% nickel alloy is used to make class and military rings. Valadium is usually silver-toned,
but can be electro-plated to give it a gold tone. The gold tone variety is known as Sun-lite Valadium.[48] Other "Valadium"
types of alloy are trade-named differently, with such names as "Siladium" and "White Lazon".
Firearms
Some firearms incorporate stainless steel components as an alternative to blued or parkerized steel. Some handgun
models, such as the Smith & Wesson Model 60 and the Colt M1911 pistol, can be made entirely from stainless steel. This
gives a high-luster finish similar in appearance to nickel plating. Unlike plating, the finish is not subject to flaking, peeling,
wear-off from rubbing (as when repeatedly removed from a holster), or rust when scratched.
3D printing
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stainless_steel 12/16
1/29/2018 Stainless steel - Wikipedia
Some 3D printing providers have developed proprietary stainless steel sintering blends for use in rapid prototyping. One
of the more popular stainless steel grades used in 3D printing is 316L stainless steel. Due to the high temperature gradient
and fast rate of solidification, stainless steel products manufactured via 3D printing tend to have a more refined
microstructure; this in turn results in better mechanical properties. However, stainless steel is not used as much as
materials like Ti6Al4V in the 3D printing industry; this is because manufacturing stainless steel products via traditional
methods is currently much more economically competitive.
There is a secondary market that recycles usable scrap for many stainless steel markets. The product is mostly coil, sheet,
and blanks. This material is purchased at a less-than-prime price and sold to commercial quality stampers and sheet metal
houses. The material may have scratches, pits, and dents but is made to the current specifications.
Health effects
Stainless steel is generally considered to be biologically inert, but some sensitive individuals develop a skin irritation due
to a nickel allergy caused by certain alloys.
Stainless steel leaches small amounts of nickel and chromium during cooking.[2] (http://healthybuildingscience.com/201
