<p>Austenitic stainless steel is one of the five classes of stainless steel by crystalline structure. Its primary crystalline structure is austenite (face-centered cubic) and it prevents steels from being hardenable by heat treatment and makes them essentially non-magnetic.</p>

<p>Martensitic stainless steel is a type of stainless steel alloy that has a martensite crystal structure. It can be hardened and tempered through aging and heat treatment.</p>

<p>Ferritic steel is a grade of stainless steel alloy that contains over 12% chromium. It is actually defined as a straight chromium non-hardenable class of stainless alloys that have chromium contents ranging from 10.5% to 30% and a carbon content of less than 0.20%. It differs from other forms of stainless steel in two critical regards: its molecular grain structure and its chemical composition.</p>

<p>Duplex stainless steel is a high-strength steel that has a ferritic–martensitic microstructure. It is a low-to-medium carbon material with between 5-50% volume fractional martensite islands that are dispersed in a soft ferrite matrix. In addition to martensite, bainite and retained austenite components can also exist.</p>

<p>One defines heat-resistant stainless steels as alloys that are used in temperatures between 500 and 1150 degrees Celsius.</p>

<p>A super austenitic stainless steel is considered to be one with a Pitting Resistance Equivalent Number (PREN) greater than 40. This is usually attributed to alloys with high additions of molybdenum, typically 6% or greater.</p>
