Is there a material that can withstand magma?

A lot of materials can withstand molten magma temperatures. Just to put it in perspective, common magma temperatures range in between 700 °C to 1300 °C (or 1300 °F to 2400 °F), molten steel is actually hotter. Anything built for the steel industry would easily be able to withstand those temperatures. read more

Assuming lava ranges from 700 to 1200°C the answer is yes. There are many materials that withstand these temperatures: from metals (nickel alloys, iron alloys, tungsten and molybdenum alloys, even though these two might have oxydation issues, iridium, osmium, titanium, etc) to ceramics (silicon nitride, aluminum oxide, mullite, zirconia, etc). read more
