carbon steel is the most abundant and cheapest form of steel available. it is found easily enough but depending upon what you want to do with it is the question to answer to find the right carbon steel. simple railroad spikes have decent carbon but if it was say for making knife bladesI personally would look for higher content in say car leaf springs or regular car springs, high tension steel cables or tool steel. before working them you will need to anneal them fully and after working and shaping you must heat treat with normally two quenchings, one of oil then one of water. After that and final touches, you will have a strong metal that is not too brittle, holds an edge and with proper care , will not rust too quickly.
The different types of stainless steel cookware available in the market include 18/10 stainless steel, 18/8 stainless steel, and 18/0 stainless steel. These numbers refer to the percentages of chromium and nickel in the stainless steel, which affect the cookware's durability and resistance to corrosion.
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).
18-8 stainless steel is commonly known as Grade 304 stainless steel.
Yes, stainless steel does react with vinegar. When vinegar comes into contact with stainless steel, it can cause a chemical reaction that can lead to the release of metal ions and discoloration of the stainless steel surface.
The stainless steel hardness scale measures the resistance of stainless steel to deformation or scratching. The higher the hardness value, the more durable the stainless steel product will be. Harder stainless steel is less likely to dent, scratch, or wear out, making it more suitable for applications that require high durability.
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, Stainless steel is not porous. Steel how ever is.

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...
Steel and stainless steel tend to weigh around the same, however, stainless steel can sometimes be a bit lighter.

UTS of 304L Stainless Steel is 586MPa UTS of 304 Stainless Steel is 621MPa
a tin plate is tin and a plate, and stainless steel is stainless steel.
No, an oven being stainless steel does not make it work better than a non stainless steel version.
Yes, scratches can be buffed out of stainless steel surfaces using a stainless steel cleaner and a soft cloth or a stainless steel polishing compound.
