  2. Stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stainless_steel

    Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel ( CRES) and rustless steel, is an alloy of iron that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. It contains iron with chromium and other elements such as molybdenum, carbon, nickel and nitrogen depending on its specific use and cost. Stainless steel's resistance to corrosion results ...

  3. SAE 304 stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_304_stainless_steel

    SAE 304 stainless steel is the most common stainless steel. It is an alloy of iron, carbon, chromium and nickel. It is an austenitic stainless steel, and is therefore not magnetic. It is less electrically and thermally conductive than carbon steel. It has a higher corrosion resistance than regular steel and is widely used because of the ease in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_steel...

    History of the steel industry (1850–1970) Before 1800 A.D., the iron and steel industry was located where raw material, power supply and running water were easily available. After 1950, the iron and steel industry began to be located on large areas of flat land near sea ports. The history of the modern steel industry began in the late 1850s.

  5. Austenitic stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austenitic_stainless_steel

    Austenitic stainless steel. Austenitic stainless steel is one of the five classes of stainless steel by crystalline structure (along with ferritic, martensitic, duplex and precipitation hardened [1] ). Its primary crystalline structure is austenite ( face-centered cubic) and it prevents steels from being hardenable by heat treatment and makes ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/17-4_stainless_steel

    17-4 stainless steel. SAE Type 630 stainless steel (more commonly known as 17-4 PH, or simply 17-4; also known as UNS S17400) is a grade of martensitic precipitation hardened stainless steel. It contains approximately 15–17.5% chromium and 3–5% nickel, as well as 3–5% copper. [1] The name comes from the chemical makeup which is ...

  7. SAE steel grades - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_steel_grades

    SAE steel grades. The SAE steel grades system is a standard alloy numbering system (SAE J1086 – Numbering Metals and Alloys) for steel grades maintained by SAE International . In the 1930s and 1940s, the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) and SAE were both involved in efforts to standardize such a numbering system for steels.

  8. History of the iron and steel industry in the United States

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_iron_and...

    British business interests were split on colonial iron: manufacturers appreciated the lower prices due to colonial imports, but the British iron and steel industry objected to the competition. Parliament compromised in the Iron Act of 1750, which eliminated the import duty on colonial pig iron, but barred the manufacture of steel or of iron plate in the colonies. The law was widely ignored by ...

  9. List of countries by steel production - Wikipedia

    The biggest steel producing country is currently China, which accounted for 54% of world steel production in 2022. [1] In 2020, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, China became the first country to produce over one billion tons of steel. [2] In 2008, 2009, 2015 and 2016 output fell in the majority of steel-producing countries as a result of the ...
