Chemistry

Chemistry refers to the chemical composition of the material. It is shown as a list of the elements and the amounts contained in the material. In steel, iron is by far the main component of steel, so it is not typically listed in the steel’s chemistry, but carbon (C), manganese (Mn), phosphorous (P) and sulfur (S) are typically listed at a minimum.
