Stainless steel corrosion
Corrosion

Corrosion of stainless metal alloys - is the process of their destruction due to chemical or electrochemical interaction with the external environment. Corrosion of stainless steels in certain environments can occur uniformly or in the form of pitting corrosion, crevice corrosion, integral corrosion or stress corrosion cracking.
Stainless steel is naturally resistant to corrosion, but it is not rust-proof. Although it is less susceptible to rust than regular steel, exposure to harmful chemicals, brine, grease, moisture, or heat over a long period of time can cause corrosion. The likelihood of corrosion depends on the chromium content of the stainless steel, with higher chromium content reducing the risk of rust.
Atmospheric corrosion of stainless steel
