React with the steel.. in the cast iron? I'm confused
Steel is like 98% iron. Sorry for the mistake.
But cast iron doesn't contain steel, it contains iron and carbon
What do you think carbon steel is made from?
Cast iron and steel are largely similar materials, cast iron just has the carbon precipitated out of solution instead of trapped in a crystalline structure
But we're talking specifically about cast iron. We're not talking about carbon steel at all, hence my confusion on why it was brought up in this comment chain
Are you a bot or just fucking retarded?
You're taking this way too personally
All the blather you morons make about disinformation, and then you try argue chemistry on how you feel.
Maybe get off the Internet and touch some grass if you're going to get this upset over a cast iron pan discussion. There's no excuse for name calling and insults.
Maybe quit aggravating people with your idiocy.
I maintain that stainless steel and cast iron are different materials
Nobody here was discussing stainless, not even you.
You must be a troll for how unnecessarily aggressive you are towards literally everyone. It's amusing, and as long as you keep foaming at the mouth, I'll be here to remind you to calm down. It's a comment chain about pans my guy, how would your mother feel to see how you're reacting right now? :)
good lord. steel is iron and carbon, just not so much carbon it becomes brittle and called cast iron
cast iron is basically steel, but has it's own name because it's brittle. roughly between half a percent to 3 percent carbon (among other things) is the base of many steels. "cast iron" is about 4 percent carbon and pretty much no ductility
