How the strength of steel can be bolstered through the use of some clever chemistry?
Steel has been around for millennia, ever since it was discovered that introducing carbon to the forge produced a much harder and durable metal than iron. Like iron though, it’s still susceptible to the elements: exposed to moisture and oxygen in the air, it’s prone to corrosion and rust. So, in the 18th and 19th centuries, heavy industry led to the process of curing steel – otherwise known as galvanizing.
