STAINLESS STEEL

While ordinary steel contains a trace of chromium to increase its strength and hardness, stainless steel alloys exhibit superior corrosion resistance due to their ability to form a passivation layer of chromium oxide on their outer surface, effectively coating the steel and protecting it from harmful oxidation caused by the reaction of exposed iron and oxygen molecules in the atmosphere.
