Dr. Doom or Iron Man?

Would Dr. Doom be able to control the various types of metal in the Iron Man suit?

The metals in Tony Stark's Iron Man suit is thought to be comprised of various materials such as titanium and nickel-titanium (nitinol). Iron would not be possible because this metal is too dense. Nitinol can be deformed at one temperature and then resume its shape back at the transformation temperature.

The suit also contains carbon-carbon composite.  This is a carbon fiber reinforced graphite that can tolerate heat in upwards of 2300° F, just the space shuttles built by NASA.

The last material the suit contains is single crystal titanium. This custom made titanium reduces the number of imperfections in the suit. This makes the suit much stronger than other titanium suits. Its now being used in military jet engines that are susceptible to bird strikes.

Now, can Victor von Doom control the metals in Tony Stark's Iron Man suit? Yes.

In conclusion: Tony Stark is for in one hell of a ride with Victor von Doom!!
