Cov hlau tsis xeb yog luv rau cov hlau tsis xeb uas tiv taus kua qaub. Nws hu ua Cov Hlau Tsis xeb uas muaj cov khoom siv tsis muaj zog lossis Cov Hlau Tsis xeb, xws li cua, pa dej thiab dej. Hom hlau uas ua rau cov khoom siv tshuaj lom neeg (acid, alkali, ntsev, thiab lwm yam) xeb yog hu ua cov hlau tiv taus kua qaub.
Raws li lub koom haum txoj cai, nws muaj peev xwm muab faib ua martensitic hlau, ferritic hlau, austenitic hlau, austenite - ferrite (ob theem) stainless hlau thiab precipitation hardening stainless hlau. Tsis tas li ntawd, nws muaj peev xwm muab faib ua chromium stainless hlau, chromium nickel stainless hlau thiab chromium manganese nitrogen stainless hlau raws li nws cov khoom sib xyaw.
Lo lus "stainless steel" tsis yog hais txog cov hlau stainless xwb tab sis kuj yog hais txog ntau tshaj ib puas hom hlau stainless. Thiab kev tsim cov hlau stainless muaj kev ua tau zoo hauv lawv cov kev siv tshwj xeeb. Yog li ntawd, thawj kauj ruam yog xam seb siv li cas, thiab tom qab ntawd txiav txim siab hom hlau raws li cov yam ntxwv ntawm txhua hom hlau stainless.
Vim nws txoj kev tiv thaiv corrosion zoo heev, kev sib raug zoo thiab muaj zog ductility hauv ntau qhov kub thiab txias, stainless hlau kuj yog cov khoom siv zoo heev rau cov neeg muab khoom foob.
