Stainless steel is a term that refers to a group of iron-based metal alloys that contain a minimum of approximately 10.5% chromium. The presence of chromium creates an invisible surface film of chromium oxide which prevents iron from rusting and also provides the unique luster and strength of stainless steel. Other elements, like nickel, molybdenum, or carbon, may be added to enhance specific properties. Due to its resistance to rust, corrosion, and staining, stainless steel is often used in kitchenware, surgical instruments, building materials, and various other industrial applications.

Brass
Brass is a metal alloy composed primarily of copper and zinc, although it can also contain small amounts of other elements such as lead, tin, or aluminum, depending on the specific alloy composition. The proportion of copper to zinc in brass can vary, resulting in different types of brass with varying properties. Brass is known for its attractive yellowish-gold color and is widely used in various applications due to its desirable characteristics, including corrosion resistance, malleability, and conductivity. It is commonly used in the production of musical instruments, plumbing fixtures, decorative items, ammunition casings, and various mechanical and electrical components. The specific properties of brass alloys can be tailored to suit different purposes by adjusting the alloy composition.
