   1. metal a variety of iron intermediate in composition and
      properties between wrought iron and cast iron containing
      between one half of one per cent and one and a half per
      cent of carbon, and consisting of an alloy of iron with
      an iron carbide. steel, unlike wrought iron, can be
      tempered, and retains magnetism. its malleability
      decreases, and fusibility increases, with an increase in
      carbon.
