2. Alloy steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alloy_steel

   The properties of steel depend on its microstructure: the arrangement of different phases, some harder, some with greater ductility. At the atomic level, the four phases of auto steel include martensite (the hardest yet most brittle), bainite (less hard), ferrite (more ductile), and austenite (the most ductile). The phases are arranged by ...

3. Steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel

   Alloy steel is steel to which other alloying elements have been intentionally added to modify the characteristics of steel. Common alloying elements include: manganese , nickel , chromium , molybdenum , boron , titanium , vanadium , tungsten , cobalt , and niobium . [ 5 ]

4. Alloy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alloy

   The Bessemer process led to the first large scale manufacture of steel. [23] Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, but the term alloy steel usually only refers to steels that contain other elements— like vanadium, molybdenum, or cobalt—in amounts sufficient to alter the properties of the base steel. Since ancient times, when steel was used ...

5. Stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stainless_steel

   Stainless steel's resistance to corrosion results from the 10.5%, or more, chromium content which forms a passive film that can protect the material and self-heal in the presence of oxygen. [1]: 3 The alloy's properties, such as luster and resistance to corrosion, are useful in many applications.

6. High-strength low-alloy steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-strength_low-alloy_steel

   High-strength low-alloy steel (HSLA) is a type of alloy steel that provides better mechanical properties or greater resistance to corrosion than carbon steel.HSLA steels vary from other steels in that they are not made to meet a specific chemical composition but rather specific mechanical properties.

7. Superalloy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superalloy

   A superalloy, or high-performance alloy, is an alloy with the ability to operate at a high fraction of its melting point. [1] Key characteristics of a superalloy include mechanical strength, thermal creep deformation resistance, surface stability, and corrosion and oxidation resistance.
