Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES), and rustless steel, is an iron-based alloy containing a minimum level of chromium that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. 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 ...
1.0% C, 1.0% Mn, 5.0% Cr, 0.3% Ni, 1.0% Mo, 0.15–0.50% V A common general purpose tool steel; it is the most commonly used variety of air-hardening steel. It is commonly used for blanking and forming punches, trimming dies, thread rolling dies, and injection molding dies.
Aluminum: 0.95–1.30 Alloying element in nitriding steels Bismuth — Improves machinability Boron: 0.001–0.003 (Boron steel) A powerful hardenability agent Chromium: 0.5–2 Increases hardenability 4–18 Increases corrosion resistance Copper: 0.1–0.4 Corrosion resistance Lead — Improved machinability Manganese: 0.25–0.40
A piece of resistive material with electrical contacts on both ends. In an ideal case, cross-section and physical composition of the examined material are uniform across the sample, and the electric field and current density are both parallel and constant everywhere.
