There are lots of stainless steels. Steel, by definition is an alloy containing carbon. The different alloyed elements give various steels their properties -- including strength, stiffness, brittleness, corrosion resistance, among others.
Mild steel contains 0.16-0.29% carbon.
Carbon steel has a carbon content in the range of 0.30-1.70% by weight.
Stainless steel has a minimum of 11% chromium content by mass.
Only stainless steel does not corrode.
"Stainless Steels" don't corrode because one of their alloying metals (usually chromium or molybdenum) forms a passivemigrates to the surface of the solid and forms a thin, hard oxide layer that is difficult to get through. In addition, there are electrochemical reasons why chromium and some other elements are resistant to corrosion.

M.S. = mild steel S.S. = stainless steel
Can lower grade of SS steel be used for making higher grade of SS steel?
Yes, higher grade stainless is achieved by cold working a lower grade stainless steel
What is the density of SS 202 grade SS?
Density of SS400 grade steel is 7860 kg/m3Refer to the related link for other properties.
What is SS400B steel?
in JIS (Japanese) "SS" stands for structural steel, and 400 grade which is similar to AISI 1018.
What is the hardness of SS 316 and SA 105 steel?

What is the difference between MS and SS in WiMAX system?
what is difference between mild steel and stainless steel
What is MS or SS steel?
M.S. = mild steel S.S. = stainless steel
What is the full form of ms like ss stainless steel?
mild steel
What is the connection between MS and SS?
SS - steamship; MS - motor ship.
What is heavy SS or MS?
Heavy SS (stainless steel) and MS (mild steel) refer to the weight and thickness of these materials in construction or manufacturing contexts. Heavy SS typically indicates a thicker gauge of stainless steel, used for applications requiring enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. In contrast, heavy MS refers to thicker mild steel, which is often utilized in structural applications due to its strength and malleability. The choice between the two depends on the specific requirements of the project, such as environmental exposure and load-bearing needs.
What are deference between 309 and 308 welding rod?
309 stainless steel welding rod used to MS to SS 308 stainless steel welding rod only used to SS
What is difference between SS 314 and SS 316?
what the difference between ss316 and ss316l
Difference between stainless steel and duplex stainless steel?
dublex ss has 22% or more but ss has 18%cr or less the main difference is that duplex is a mix of a ferrite / austenite structure approx 50%/50%, and so the name "duplex" while stainless steel has just one structure, for example the 18/10 is an austenitic.
Difference between ss 321 and ss 304?
SS 321 contains titanium which makes it more corrosion resistant than SS 304. SS 321 is better suited for high temperature applications due to its improved resistance to intergranular corrosion. SS 304 is a general-purpose stainless steel with good overall corrosion resistance but not as high as SS 321.
Can you explain the difference between ss and fs in a way that is easy to understand"?
The difference between "ss" and "fs" is that "ss" is a double letter that is used in the middle of a word to represent the "s" sound, while "fs" is not a common combination of letters in English words.
What is the full form of ss steel?
