    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron

    This form of iron is used in the type of stainless steel used for making cutlery, and hospital and food-service equipment. [21] Commercially available iron is classified based on purity and the abundance of additives. Pig iron has 3.5–4.5% carbon [134] and contains varying amounts of contaminants such as sulfur, silicon and phosphorus. Pig ...

  4. Iron compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_compounds

    Iron shows the characteristic chemical properties of the transition metals, namely the ability to form variable oxidation states differing by steps of one and a very large coordination and organometallic chemistry: indeed, it was the discovery of an iron compound, ferrocene, that revolutionalized the latter field in the 1950s. [1]

    Harewood, a material used in marquetry and parquetry since the 17th century, is also made using ferrous sulfate. Two different methods for the direct application of indigo dye were developed in England in the 18th century and remained in use well into the 19th century. One of these, known as china blue, involved iron(II) sulfate.

    In ferrous materials some additional heat is created by hysteresis losses, but this creates less than ten percent of the total heat generated. [17] New types of power semiconductors and low-loss coil designs have made an all-metal cooker possible which can be used with any metal pot or pan even if not designed for induction.
