Scrap metal prices USA, Gilberts, IL, Illinois. Stainless Steel is a metal that has a higher resistance to corrosion and oxidation than steel. To be considered stainless steel it must contain a minimum of 10.5% chromium. Other elements, such as: nickel, molybdenum and niobium, are often used to change the chemistry of the steel for a particular application. When chromium is added to steel and combined with oxygen; a thin, few atoms thick, invincible layer is formed that protects the steel underneath; this process also gives unique self healing abilities to the metal. The history of stainless steel dates back to the mid 1800’s to early 1900’s. Early on there were different variations of corrosion resistant metals being explored by several researchers. Harry Brearley is credited by some to be the person that discovered stainless steel for the first time; however, there were previous patents already in place before his discovery. Stainless Steel is used in a wide range of applications from industrial to cutlery to decorative. Of all the ferrous metals, steel is one of the most recycled materials in the world. This is because it can be found almost anywhere from furniture to office items to construction materials. Considering this, excess steel scraps are not hard to come by. That's why we offer steel recycling services to make sure you have a place to bring your extra steel items and parts, where they can be put to good use. Considering how aluminum is one of the most common metals found at home, at the office, or even at a construction yard, it's important that any scrap sheets, cans, and wires are disposed of properly. This is why we at Elgin Recycling & Scrap Metal offer aluminum recycling services. Whether you're a homeowner, a business owner, or a contractor, you can rest assured that any aluminum waste you have has a proper place to be sent and can even help you earn a couple of bucks or more. Copper has been used throughout history in everything from tools to currency. The Ancient Egyptians used the metal for many applications, one of them being the earliest known plumbing systems they constructed within their structures. Copper has been an essential material to man since prehistoric times.
