Alloy steels contain elements such as chromium, cobalt, nickel etc. In comparison with carbon steels, alloy steels are a lot more responsive to mechanical and heat treatments. Alloy steels comprise a wide range of steels whose compositions exceed the limitations of Si, Va, Cr, Ni, Mo, Mn, B and C allocated for carbon steels. Alloy steels can be subjected to unique melting and deoxidization processes for specific kind of applications.
