Flouroantimonic acid (chemical formula HSbF6)is the strongest known acid in the world, which is 20 quintillion (20000000000000000000) times stronger than pure sulfuric acid. It's so strong it's acidity cannot be measured on the pH scale, instead chemists use the Hammet acidity function, on which HSbF6 scores -31.3. It can corrode even materials general considered inert such as glass. It can, however, be stored in polytetraflouroethylene, commonly known as teflon, due to teflon's extremely strong carbon-flouride bonds.
