  2. Titanium alloys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_alloys

    It has a chemical composition of 6% aluminum, 4% vanadium, 0.25% (maximum) iron, 0.2% (maximum) oxygen, and the remainder titanium. [19] It is significantly stronger than commercially pure titanium (grades 1-4) while having the same stiffness and thermal properties (excluding thermal conductivity, which is about 60% lower in Grade 5 Ti than in ...

  3. Alloy steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alloy_steel

    Researches created an alloy with the strength of steel and the lightness of titanium alloy. It combined iron, aluminum, carbon, manganese, and nickel. The other ingredient was uniformly distributed nanometer-sized B2 intermetallic (two metals with equal numbers of atoms) particles. The use of nickel team avoided problems with earlier attempts ...

  4. Rolled homogeneous armour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolled_homogeneous_armour

    RHA is homogeneous because its structure and composition are uniform throughout its thickness. The opposite of homogeneous steel plate is cemented or face-hardened steel plate, where the face of the steel is composed differently from the substrate. The face of the steel, which starts as an RHA plate, is hardened by a heat-treatment process.

  6. Titanium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium

    Titanium is a common material for backpacking cookware and eating utensils. Though more expensive than traditional steel or aluminium alternatives, titanium products can be significantly lighter without compromising strength. Titanium horseshoes are preferred to steel by farriers because they are lighter and more durable. [115]

  7. Ferrotitanium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrotitanium

    Samples of ferrotitanium with 70% titanium content, used in the steel industry (placed on A4 sheet) Ferrotitanium is a ferroalloy, an alloy of iron and titanium with between 10 and 20% iron and 45–75% titanium and sometimes a small amount of carbon.

  8. Alloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alloy

    Bronze was an extremely useful alloy to the ancients, because it is much stronger and harder than either of its components. Steel was another common alloy. However, in ancient times, it could only be created as an accidental byproduct from the heating of iron ore in fires during the manufacture of iron.

  9. Metal prices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_prices

    These prices are more an indication than an actual exchange price. Unlike the prices on an exchange, pricing providers tend to give a weekly or bi-weekly price. For each commodity they quote a range (low and high price) which reflect the buying and selling about 9-fold due to China's transition from light to heavy industry and its focus on ...
