    Steel is used in NH3 plants and can also be used in large industrial CFC HFC plants. Stainless steel can also be used with NH3 or any other refrigerant.
    Aluminium is used on some domestic fridges.

    Hi MG Pony
    The periodic table for Unobtainium explains a lot.
    We have similar materials here I think they are called "Youwantwhat" or "Nevreheardofit".
