Why nickel makes stainless steel non-magnetic when nickel itself is ferromagnetic? - non magnetic 7.62 x 39mm
Nickel is ferromagnetic in nature. But when it is added to stainless steel, stainless steel is not magnetic. What is the structural change that has the presence of nickel?

Non Magnetic 7.62 X 39mm Why Nickel Makes Stainless Steel Non-magnetic When Nickel Itself Is Ferromagnetic?

Steel is magnetic, since the orientation of the electron spins of atoms in the crystalline matrix of steel. The nickel atoms have the same size as the atoms into atoms of iron and chromium. have different sizes of the atoms in the alloy, which inhibits a single crystalline matrix. If you have a box of marbles that all have the same size can imagine, they all remain in a regular pattern in the table. But a handful of marbles unique blend of irregular structure. This prevents the magnetic properties of each element of taxation.
All stainless steel is not magnetic.
Dear Ian,
Magnetism does not sum or average in this mode.
Ferro-magnetism requires that all spins are aligned. This effect is complex and requires a subtle interaction between neighboring atoms in the network and its electron singlet. The distance between the atoms is what is important.
Some stainless steels are ferromagnetic, as they have enough space, not others, because space is a mistake. This area is influenced by the composition of the alloy.
