Steel is an iron carbon alloy with carbon content between 0.0218% and 2.11%. In order to ensure toughness and plasticity, the carbon content is generally no more than 1.7%. In addition to iron and carbon, the main elements of steel are silicon, manganese, sulfur, phosphorus, etc. Steel is classified in a variety of ways, the main methods are as follows:

1. Classification by quality

Ordinary steel: (P≤0.045%, S≤0.050%);

High quality steel: (P, S≤0.035%);

High quality steel: (P≤0.035%, S≤0.030%).

2. Classification by chemical composition

Carbon steel: a. mild steel (C≤0.25%); b. Medium carbon steel (0.25≤C≤0.60%);

c. High carbon steel (C≥0.60%).

Low alloy steel (total alloying element content < 5%); b. Medium alloy steel (5%≤ total alloying element content ≤10%); c. High alloy steel (total alloying element content > 10%).

3, according to the forming method classification: (1) forging steel; (2) cast steel; (3) hot rolled steel; (4) cold drawn steel.

4. Classification by metallographic organization

Annealed: a. hypoeutectoid steel (ferritic + pearlite); b. Eutectoid steel (pearlite); c. Hypereutectoid steel (pearlite + cementite); d. Leytenite steel (pearlite + cementite).

Normalizing: a. pearlite steel; b. Bainitic steel; c. Martensitic steel; d. austenitic steel. (3) No phase transition or partial phase transition

5. Classification by use

Engineering steel: a. Ordinary carbon structural steel; b. Low alloy structural steel; c. Reinforcing steel.

Carbon steel: a. Nitriding steel; b. Steel for surface hardening; c. Easy cutting structural steel; d. Steel for cold plastic forming: including steel for cold stamping and cold heading.

Carbon tool steel; a. Alloy tool steel; b. High speed tool steel.

Steel with special properties: a. stainless acid-resistant steel; b. Heat-resistant steel: including anti-oxidation steel, heat-strength steel, valve steel; c. Electrothermal alloy steel; d. Wear-resistant steel; e. Steel for low temperature; f. Steel for electrical purposes.

Bridge with steel, ship with steel, boiler with steel, pressure vessel with steel, agricultural machinery with steel.
