Why Doesn’t Stainless Steel Rust?
Why doesn’t stainless steel rust? Unlike regular steel, which falls victim to rust at the first sign of moisture, stainless steel remains shiny and strong. But what’s the secret? It all comes down to chemistry, engineering, and one crucial element—chromium! In this video, we break down how stainless steel resists corrosion, why its protective layer is self-repairing, and whether it can ever rust under extreme conditions.
