Chromium has a
wide range of uses in chemicals, metals, and refractory materials. Its use in
iron, nonferrous alloys, and steel is for the purpose of enhancing
hardenability or resis-tance to corrosion and oxidation. Production of
stainless steel and nonferrous alloys are two of its more critical
applications. Other applications are in alloy steel, catalysts, leather
proc-essing, pigments, plating of metals, refractories, and surface
treatments.
