What are the elements of steel?

Answer 1

iron ore, coal, and alloys are the main components of steel. flux can be added to facilitate purity in the process, and often scrap is melted down and added b/c it is more available than the raw elements in many areas.

Carbon And IRON ! Ferrous Metal.

Answer 2

In Runescape: mine a iron ore and then go mine 2 coal. Go to the furnace and smelt it into steel bar. (please note that you need lv 30 smithing to smelt steel.) In Maplestory: get some steel ore by killing monsters, almost every monster drop it but the percent of drops varies. Take it to a person who makes things and tell him to refine the ore. In real life: Now to get to the point: it is made from iron ore and carbon. I imagine that some coal is also used and also some other element metals in very small amounts.

Answer 3

Steel is almost all iron. It has a touch of carbon in it (to make the iron turn into steel) and can have bits of this and that to produce an alloy that is specific to a task. Some cobalt and heat treating will get it really hard and wear resistant. Add 11% or so of chromium and presto! you'll get stainless steel. Get the lowdown by using the link to our friends at Wikipedia. The science of steel is a broad and deeply involved topic from alloys to heat treating. Life as we know it would not be the same without steel.

Answer 4

I think it is 2 components. Iron and carbon.

Answer 5

do you mean the chemical composition? It's made of iron and carbon... there's only two.

Answer 6

Iron and carbon and whatever additional additives are appropriate to get desired specific results.

Answer 7

smelting shaping cooling
