    The main component of rust is ferric oxide, which has no direct harm to the human body. However, cutting vegetables with a kitchen knife with rust will stain the vegetables and meat with a rusty smell, which will affect the texture and taste of the cut vegetables and meat. Just sharpen the knife and you're good to go.

    If the rust is not very serious, wipe it off with a cleaning steel wool ball and wipe it off with a scouring pad. If the rust is stronger, you need to use a fine grinding stone to polish it (grinding stones are generally sold in larger markets).

    Yes. Rust is ferric tetroxide.

    It is a mixture of ferric oxide and ferrous oxide.

    The iron in ferric oxide is trivalent.

    Poisonous. In ferrous oxide is ear bivalent.

    It is necessary for the human body.

    But it's better for you to erase it.

    Kitchen knives are often used and come into contact with ingredients and water, and if they are not properly prevented, they will cause rust.

    There are a few tips to keep kitchen knives from rusting.

    The first trick is to wash rice water to remove rust.

    Everyone is familiar with rice water. We wash rice every day, but everyone pours it directly after using up the rice washing water, but we don't know that the rice washing water has the effect of removing rust. We only need to soak the rusty kitchen knife or rusty iron products in the rice washing water, soak them overnight and then take them out, and we will find that the rust on the kitchen knife or iron products has magically disappeared.

    This is because rice washing water is rich in starch. If the kitchen knife at home is rusty, you can try this method.

    The second trick is white vinegar to remove rust.

    White vinegar is a common condiment in our lives, but its role is more than just a seasoning. Because most of the rust on iron products is oxide, white vinegar contains acetic acid. It can react chemically with rust.

    The rust then breaks down. We can soak iron products in white vinegar for one to two hours. When you take it out later, you will find that the rust on the iron product is gone, so that the rust can be effectively removed without much effort.

    The third trick is to remove rust from cork.

    Nowadays, red wine is becoming more and more popular, but after drinking red wine, don't throw the cork on the bottle, it can remove rust. First, we sprinkle some decontamination powder on top of the kitchen knife, and then put the ginger cork in the water to soak it thoroughly. If you put it directly on the kitchen knife and rub it on the field, you will find that the rust on the kitchen knife is gone after a few minutes, and the effect is very good.

    The reason why iron rusts is because it comes into contact with "water and oxygen" at the same time. This is the basic reason. Going deeper, there are two types of rust:

    One is "hydrogen evolution corrosion" and the other is "oxygen absorption corrosion". After cutting fruits, kitchen knives rust and tend to corrode by hydrogen evolution; After being dipped in salt water, it tends to be corroded by oxygen absorption.

    1.If the surface of the kitchen knife is rusty, you can wipe it with fresh radish or potato slices dipped in a little sand, or you can use cut shallots to make the rust fade.

    2.Rice washing water is rich in starch and can create a protective film on the iron knife. As long as the whole kitchen knife is soaked in rice washing water, soaked for 2 hours, and then wiped dry, the kitchen knife can prevent rust.

    3.Or you can apply 100% tomato juice to rusty kitchen knives for quick rust removal. Apply the tomato juice to the knife first, and after a few minutes, rub it again with a rag dipped in the tomato juice to remove the rust.
