How does chromium content influence the corrosion resistance of stainless steel alloys?
Chromium forms a passive oxide layer that protects the steel from rust and can self-heal when exposed to oxygen.
Chromium increases the steel's hardness but does not affect corrosion resistance.
Chromium prevents rust by chemically reacting with water to form a protective coating.
