Can you weld titanium and stainless steel?

Short answer: No. Long answer: Welding stainless directly to titanium results in an unusable weld. If you have access to an electron beam welder (they cost millions and they're the size of a house) you can design a joint with a piece of vanadium between the two other metals.


Is aluminum the cheapest to use for soda cans?

If you take into account how easily it is formed to make the can and not just how much the metal itself costs, yes. And by a wide margin. Aluminum is more expensive to buy than something like sheets or rods or billets of, say, steel. But aluminum has properties that make it vastly easier to work and form than that steel. Aluminum is almost miraculous in its ability to be shaped and formed without cracking or breaking apart. It is strong, but ductile, and tough but workable by standard means. If you wish to watch a short vid about how an aluminum can is made, use the link below. Aluminum is the best choice for beverage containers. Food requires heavier cans, and we usually see steel applied there. You may have guessed that the original cans were made of tin, and the name has been hanging on with us. Check out that vid. It's worth the few minutes it takes to watch it.
