All types of steel have carbon in its chemical composition. All types of steel are metallic (conductive to heat and electricity).
Iron is used as a parent material in all steels. You can think of steels ans stainess steel types such as ferritic, austenitic, martensitic, duplex, super duplex stainless steels and many more commercial names that has many different categories. Structural steels are used in construction of buildings and bridges. iron as a major component in steel is also used in construction of piping systems in chemical and metallurgical industries as well as in reinforcements during building. These, including car manufacturing as sheet steel and good quality kitchen ware as mainly type AISI304 and AISI303 stainless steels, are major uses of iron.
1040 rough steel
Examples: stainless steels, zircalloys, amalgams.
In the presence of oxygen - rusting; but now many types of stainless steels are known.
Manganese is a key alloying element in many types of steel and stainless steels.
Phases and types of steel and carbon content in steels.
The ion chloride Cl- is corrosive for iron and many types of steels.
annealing for steels
No. All steels are all mostly iron.
They don't all contain cobalt, but some do.
Many different types of steel makes good knife blades-I believe that stainless steels are most suitable for the majority of knife types though. Good edge retention (Tests indicates that stainless steels; if properly heat treated, has better edge retention then most high carbon steels), very high corrosion resistance, and sufficient toughness.
For example all steels.
