“…An example of this outstanding property is the existence of several types of stainless steels that usually contains a significant proportion of chromium (12 to 25 wt.% Cr) with nickel and molybdenum to prevent the formation of ferrous hydroxide Fe 2þ þ 2OH À ! Fe OH ðÞ 2 rusting product ÀÁ by the presence of Cr in the Fe-base alloy, which reacts with oxygen from the environment to form a passive adherent oxide-layer (Cr 2 O 3 ), thus, given a remarkably resistance to corrosion attack of the underlying metal, additionally, this oxide layer, can be regenerated by itself in the presence of oxygen [4,[7][8][9]. Based on the fundamental concepts, one of the advantages of using stainless steel is its high corrosion resistance, but in combination with other alloying elements can provide good mechanical strength, making the steel an appropriate material to be used in diverse applications that, in many cases, offers the only alternative for its high durability in aggressive environments; its use can be seen in domestic (cutlery, blades, household appliances and electronics), architectural (structures, handrails, concrete reinforcing bars, building components, cables for bridges and coastal works), transport (automotive exhaust system, ship containers, waste trucks and tankers for chemicals), chemical (pressure vessels, chemical containers, pipes, chemical plants, waste-water treatment), oil/gas (platform structures, machinery, storage tanks and pipelines), medical (surgical instruments, implants, equipment, dental inserts, wire and brackets in orthodontics), and other common uses (food containers, beverage bottles, springs, fasteners, bolts, nuts, washers and wires) [10].…”
