Does 20 gauge galvannealed steel rust faster in salt water or fresh water?
Salt
Why does salt water make steel wool rust faster?
It is because salt is most involved in chemical reactions so it chemically changes it with rust.
Factors that promote rust?
An iron material can easily rust in the presence of air and water. For example if an iron nail is half dipped in water and the rest of the nail is open in the presence of air then the nail can easily rust.
Will stainless steel rust in a pool?
Stainless Steel and PoolsEventually, yes, stainless steel will rust if left in a pool. *Yes - bleach will cause stainless steel to rust and chlorine is found in pools. Ergo, pool water will cause rust on stainless steel items.

What rusts faster aluminium or carbon steel?
Since aluminum cannot rust ('rust' is a specific term for the corrosion of iron), carbon steel will be faster. Althpough an oxide coat forms on both aluminum and steel, the oxides are of a different nature. The iron "rust" is a pervious coating which allows water to be held against the metal and oxygen to enter and react with the wet metal, aluminum oxide is an impervious layer which protects the metal from further decomposition,
Why will salt water rust faster?
The salt contains ions, which increases the rate of corrosion or oxidation of steel.
