The Benefits of Stainless Steel Cabinets
Stainless steel cabinets offer exceptional resistance to rust, boasting both stainless and acid-resistant (corrosion-resistant) properties. They contain at least 10.5% chromium and a maximum of 1.2% carbon, making them a reliable choice for various environments.
Austenitic Stainless Steel: This type includes more than 18% chromium and about 8% nickel, with small amounts of molybdenum, titanium, and nitrogen. Known for its comprehensive performance, it can withstand corrosion from numerous mediums. While it is generally non-magnetic, certain conditions may induce magnetism. Widely used in industries such as furniture decoration, food, and medical fields, the 300 and 200 series are predominantly austenitic, with common grades like 304, 316, 201, and 202.
304 Stainless Steel: Frequently referred to as 18/8 stainless steel, it contains more than 18% chromium and over 8% nickel. It endures high temperatures up to 800 degrees Celsius, showcasing excellent processing performance and high toughness. Recognized as food-grade stainless steel, it finds extensive application in industrial, furniture decoration, and food medical industries.
200 Series Stainless Steel vs. 304 Stainless Steel: Both fall under austenitic stainless steel. The primary difference lies in nickel content. The 200 series has lower nickel, making it less resistant to rust compared to 304, and not suitable for industrial pollution or coastal environments. However, it is more cost-effective, with 304 boasting a shiny surface with a slight gloss, whereas 200 has a matte finish.
Do Stainless Steel Cabinets Rust?
Under certain conditions, stainless steel can rust. While stainless steel cabinets resist atmospheric oxidation (stainless) and corrosion in acidic, alkaline, and salty mediums (corrosion-resistant), their performance varies with chemical composition, additives, usage conditions, and environment. For instance, 304 steel performs excellently in dry, clean atmospheres but can rust quickly in coastal areas with salty sea mist. In such regions, 316 steel is recommended.
Stainless steel’s corrosion resistance comes from a thin, strong, dense, stable chromium oxide film (protective film) on its surface. If this film is continuously damaged, oxygen atoms from air or liquid infiltrate, forming loose iron oxide and leading to surface corrosion.
