BTW boron become both the cheapest and lightest propellant tank material in game after 1.11...

This purports to be a video of fluorine reacting with boron - so the result of trying to store fluorine in a tank made of boron should be a very bright flame. In general, afaik the only materials that are not destroyed by fluorine are ones that either form a hard, solid, impermeable fluoride upon exposure, prevent the rest of the material from reacting, or the ones that aren't attacked by fluorine at all, e.g. teflon.

Which is why every surface that comes into contact with a Halogen (or reactive substance, like Oxygen or Water) should be plated in PTFE. |

Brothers and sisters, May we all congregate here in peace and harmony, to celebrate the life of this wonderful thread. For it has enlightened many of us in the ways of becoming true children of a dead earth. May its guidance forever reach newcomers looking to make an overpowered laser, and may its list of plentiful reactors power the vessels of those to come. Amen Edit: Maybe nevermind?
