Steel is an alloy, consisting mostly of iron, with a carbon content between 0.2 % and 2.04%, depending on the grade and quality. Carbon is the most cost-effective alloying material for iron, but various other alloying elements are used such as manganese, chromium, vanadium and tungsten. so the active ingredient in steel is iron
The "active" ingredients depend on the characteristic under consideration. Stainless steel is a mixture of metallic elements along with smaller quantities of non-metallic elements. The non-metallic elements, in particular, may be added to give stainless steel specific properties. In that context, then, that particular element may be an active ingredient.
The main ingredient is iron.
Carbon steels are actually mixtures of iron and carbon. Depending on the type of steel, the composition of iron may vary.
the active ingredient in steel is iron and carbon.
Iron ore, tons of heat, and air.
Stainless steel would be frozen at room temperature because it is a solid. The melting point of stainless steel is about 1510 degrees Celsius, and the melting point is the same as the freezing point. So, at any point below 1510 degrees Celsius, stainless steel is a solid, therefore frozen.
most are made from stainless steel
lots of metals scratch eaily including copper steel and iron :)
Stainless steel is a ferrous metal, but it is sometimes classified as nonferrous by the recycling and scrap industries.A ferrous metal is one that contains primarily iron. Nonferrous metals are all metals other than iron, and alloys without an appreciable iron content.Chemically, stainless steels are 75-90% iron. They are alloyed with varying amounts of chromium, nickel, and/or molybdenum. Some grades of stainless steel are magnetic, some are not. The different grades also have different welding characteristics; some are easy to weld while others are difficult.Scrapyards that move ferrous metals with electromagnets may classify the nonmagnetic grades of stainless steel as nonferrous for handling purposes.Scrap dealers may also categorize stainless steel as nonferrous because the dollar value associated with scrap stainless steel is dependant on the alloy content; the alloys are much more valuable than iron. For these dealers, price is the primary interest and their classification as nonferrous is based on the price they can obtain from the alloy metals in the steel.These classifications are specialized industry uses of the term nonferrous. Generally and scientifically, all stainless steels are ferrous metals because the majority of their chemical content is iron.Stainless steel is a ferrous alloy, but it is sometimes classified as nonferrous by the recycling and scrap industries.
Carbon Steel pipe is stronger than stainless steel pipe as there is more iron in the carbon steel. However, the application depends on the purpose the pipe is being installed. Stainless is of course capable of being sanitized and therefore can be used for food and pharmaceutical uses. Carbon Steel (black pipe) is stronger and cheaper but not sanitary.
Some of the most effective stainless steel cleaners include baking soda and vinegar as active ingredients. There are many name brand items available to clean stainless steel.
The elements that make up stainless steel are nickel, iron,chromium and manganese.
There is stainless steel and there is magnaized stainless steel but you can not make regular stainless steel magnetic
steel is steel and there is nothing you can do about it even if it is stainless steel or it i not stainless steel it will rust
Yep, you can weld steel to stainless and you can weld stainless to steel. You can use steel or stainless welding rod in either case but the steel or steel welding rod will of course rust.
No; steel is an iron-carbon alloy. Stainless steel is an alloy of steel with chromium added. Stainless steel is usually 13-25% chromium (by weight).
Well, the answer lies in the question; by saying 'real' stainless steel, you are implying that there are fake metals which go under the name 'stainless steel', thus the difference is that the stainless steel in refigerators is actually stainless steel, and the fake stainless steel is not...thus your question is answered...

No, Stainless steel is not porous. Steel how ever is.
Steel and stainless steel tend to weigh around the same, however, stainless steel can sometimes be a bit lighter.
