Objective

The aim of this study is to assess the safety and compatibility of stainless steels in applications related to human health for everyday use or in biological applications. Stainless steels and alloys applied in the food industry and medical applications will be tested, both in laboratory and real conditions. The results will be related to the metallurgical and surface properties of the tested materials. Data will be used as the base for future campaigns of the stainless steels producers.
