why are other metals added to stainless steel
Copper Aluminum iron mercury other metals
Stainless steel is better than other metals because they do not stain, rust, chip or their color fades. They are more expensive than other grills but lasts so much longer.
The iron ore is refined into iron, The molten iron is then alloyed (mixed) with other molten metals, commonly chromium and nickel, along with carbon. There are different mixes to produce stainless steel with different properties. It is not truly stainless, but is stain RESISTANT and rust RESISTANT.
Energy is transfered by molecules colliding with each other. The closer the molecules are, the better they conduct energy. That is why air is a bad conductor and copper is. The molecules in copper are much closer than air molecules. Aluminum is also a bad conductor, because it is not very dense.
it is a conductor as all other metals and the gold is also good conductor as silver!!!
why are other metals added to stainless steel
All metals are good conductors off electricity in their pure form. So yes, in comparison to other metals, generally the more to the left of the periodic table and element is the better the conductor.
Stainless Steel must have at least 10.5-11% chromium content.
Pure sodium is a metal, and is an electrical conductorlike other metals.
As compared to other metals, mercury is a poor conductor of heat but a fair conductor of electricity. Mercury has an exceptionally low melting temperature for a d-block metal.
To make it last for a long time
The addition of other metals makes steel stainless.
they are considered heavy metals because of the weight to volume ration in comparison to other metals. they have more mass with little volume than other metals do.
It's not a good conductor of electricity or heat, like most other non-metals.
Chromium (and Carbon, but that's a non-metal)
