He pōkole ke kila kuhiliʻole no ke kila kūpale ʻakika.Ua kapa ʻia ʻo ia ʻo Stainless Steel me ka nāwaliwali corrosive medium a i ʻole Stainless Steel, e like me ka ea, ka mahu a me ka wai.ʻO ke ʻano o ke kila e hoʻopōʻino ai i ke kinikini corrosive medium (acid, alkali, paʻakai, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe) i kapa ʻia he kila pale-waika.
E like me ke kūlana o ka hui, hiki ke hoʻokaʻawale ʻia i ke kila martensitic, ke kila ferritic, ke kila austenitic, ka austenite - ferrite (ʻelua manawa) ke kila kila a me ke kila paʻakikī paʻakikī.Eia kekahi, hiki ke hoʻokaʻawale ʻia i ka chromium stainless steel, chromium nickel stainless steel a me ka chromium manganese nitrogen stainless steel e like me kona constituent.
ʻAʻole ʻōlelo wale ʻia ka huaʻōlelo ʻo “stainless steel” i ke kila kila maʻemaʻe akā ʻoi aku ma mua o hoʻokahi haneli mau ʻano ʻoihana o ke kila kila.Aʻo ka hoʻomohalaʻana o kēlā me kēia kila kila he hana maikaʻi i kā lākou mau noi kiko'ī.No laila, ʻo ka hana mua e noʻonoʻo i ka hoʻohana ʻana, a laila e hoʻoholo i ke ʻano kūpono o ke kila e like me nā ʻano o kēlā me kēia ʻano o ke kila kila.
Ma muli o kona kūpaʻa corrosion maikaʻi loa, ka hoʻohālikelike a me ka ductility ikaika i ka laulā ākea ākea, ʻo ke kila kila kekahi mea waiwai maikaʻi loa no nā mea hoʻolako sila.
