stainless steel is the steel produced when normal steel is alloyed.
normal steel has the ability to corrode easily but when it is alloyed,it has only some chances of getting corroded.as it is not getting corroded, it is called stainless steel.
Stainless steel’s resistance to corrosion and staining, low maintenance, and familiar lustre make it an ideal material for many applications. The alloy is milled into coils, sheets, plates, bars, wire, and tubing to be used in cookware, cutlery, household hardware, surgical instruments, major appliances, industrial equipment (for example, in sugar refineries) and as an automotive and aerospace structural alloy and construction material in large buildings.

Stainless steel is called that because it doesn’t rust or discolor, unlike regular steel or plain iron. This is because of the chromium in the alloy. It’s just enough chromium to cause a chromium oxide layer on the stainless steel.
chromium oxide forms a adherent,transparent,very thin layer on metals that blocks air n stops corrosion
