Since extreme temperatures and cosmic rays break down rubber or turn it to a brittle glass, metal alloys and high-performance plastic are chief contenders for airless space tyres.

It is primarily used to make stainless steel and is often combined with other metals to form alloys used in medical devices, jewelry, coins, batteries and other applications.
