The primary metallic element that's added to steel to make stainless steel is?
A steel is considered to be stainless if it contains a minimal of 13% chromium.
What is the Property difference between steel and stainless steell?
When an alloy of steel contains more than approximately 10 ½% Chromium it can be classified as a stainless steel. There are several clasifications of stainless steel with varying propertys Martensitic, Ferritic, Austenitic and Duplex.
What are the 4 main elements in stainless steel?
The elements that make up stainless steel are nickel, iron,chromium and manganese.
Which metal requires chromium for its production?
For example the stainless steel grade 304 with 18 % chromium and 8 % nickel.
What metal is used to make stainless steel and forms nichrome with nickel?
Chromium
What are the components of mixture of stainless steel?
There are many different mixtures (alloys) for stainless steel, but a good answer can be found on Wikipedia's page on the related link.

How is stainless steel made from iron ore?
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.
Chromium is used for.?
Chromium is a rare element. There are many uses for it. We can use it for make stainless steel.

Why is stainless steel dangerous to weld?
stainless steel contains chromium. chromium gives off toxic fumes when heated.

The elements that make up stainless steel are nickel, iron,chromium and manganese.
Do the stainless properties of stainless steel disappear if it is melted and reused?
Stainless steel remains stainless after recycling. It resists rusting primarily because of the chromium content of the alloy. The chromium oxidizes to form a protective layer. The formation of this oxide layer is improved by a process called passivation. There are different grades of stainless steel having varying proportions of chromium, nickel and other elements so if you want to get top-dollar for stainless steel scrap, you need to segregate it.
Which metal requires chromium for its production?
For example the stainless steel grade 304 with 18 % chromium and 8 % nickel.
Which of the two metals are mixed in manufacturing of stainless steel?
steel and chromium
Does Stainless steel corrode at different water temps?
Stainless steels contain sufficient chromium to form a passive film of chromium oxide, which prevents surface corrosion. Stainless steel will not be effect by temperatures pass 100 degees Celcius (212 Fahrenheit) at which temperature water boils.
What is stainless steal made out of?
chromium and nickel
