See the sub-article on titanium applications. Titanium alone is a strong, light metal. It is stronger than common, low-carbon steels, but 45% lighter. It is also twice as strong as weak aluminium alloys but only 60% heavier. Titanium has outstanding corrosion resistance to seawater, and thus is used in propeller shafts, rigging and other parts ...
The ATI 425 Titanium Alloy is a titanium alloy developed and produced by Allegheny Technologies Incorporated (ATI). It is produced in multiple product forms, including sheet, coil, strip, Precision Rolled Strip and foil, plate, seamless tube, shapes and rectangles, as well as castings.
Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy commonly exists in alpha, with hcp crystal structure, (SG : P63/mmc) and beta, with bcc crystal structure, (SG : Im-3m) phases. While mechanical properties are a function of the heat treatment condition of the alloy and can vary based upon properties, typical property ranges for well-processed Ti-6Al-4V are shown below.
Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo (UNS designation R54620), also known as Ti 6-2-4-2, is a near alpha titanium alloy known for its high strength and excellent corrosion resistance. It is often used in the aerospace industry for creating high-temperature jet engines and the automotive industry to create high performance automotive valves.
Titanium aluminide (chemical formula TiAl), commonly gamma titanium, is an intermetallic chemical compound. It is lightweight and resistant to oxidation [1] and heat, but has low ductility. The density of γ-TiAl is about 4.0 g/cm 3. It finds use in several applications including aircraft, jet engines, sporting equipment and automobiles.
Boeing and Airbus, the two biggest commercial airline makers, may have used titanium sold using fake documents, according to evidence from a supplier that has triggered a Federal Aviation ...
Titanium mill products (sheet, plate, bar, wire, forgings, castings) find application in industrial, aerospace, recreational, and emerging markets. Powdered titanium is used in pyrotechnics as a source of bright-burning particles.
The previous pattern for titanium had been demand growing rapidly on the wings of a cyclical aerospace industry until it exceeded the supply: In those scenarios, prices shot skyward, then crashed.
