Steel is iron that contains up to 2.14 % carbon in the form of cementite. The properties of steel vary with carbon content and also depend upon the presence of other metals and the production method. Alloy steels contain alloying elements while authentic steel is a solid solution of carbon in a form of iron and normally stable only at high temperatures but can be produced by rapid cooling. Stainless steel is a group of chromium/nickel steels, which have a high resistance to corrosion and chemical attack. Stainless steel has many uses: cutlery, equipment in chemical plants; ball bearings and many other items of machinery.
