1. 316 stainless steel is added with molybdenum on the basis of 304 stainless steel, so that the steel has good resistance to reducing medium and pitting corrosion resistance. In seawater and various other media, the corrosion resistance is better than 304 stainless steel, mainly used for corrosion-resistant materials. Used in medical or heavy industrial equipment. The price of 304 stainless steel is relatively low, and it is usually used in daily life, kettles, chopsticks, etc.
2. The price of 304 stainless steel is far from the price of 316 stainless steel, and the price of the latter can be as high as 2 times of the former.
