Does steel contain iron?
The steel element is an alloy of iron and carbon with 1.8% carbon in its composition. In alloyed steels, this amount can increase up to 2.1%. Especially steel is among the products needed in many areas. In addition, it can be used in many areas such as railways, motor vehicles, modern machines and aircraft.
The production of steel is the process of alloying raw iron with substances such as 2-4% carbon, phosphorus and sulfur in blast furnaces. These substances have a direct effect while reducing the strength. Raw iron has a structure that can easily break even if it falls from a low level. However, steel production has become extremely easy and economical.
