Titanium
Titanium products were created initially as a biocompatible alternative
to stainless steel -- something that did not have ferrous components. While
being a metal and therefore offering a higher temperature rating than polymers
can offer, titanium does not exhibit the same strong chemical resistance
that stainless steel does, and is particularly susceptible to attack by
strong acidic or basic solutions. There are many other solvents that will
interact with titanium, so it is recommended that a chemical compatibility
chart be consulted.
