  2. Titanium alloys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_alloys

    Titanium alloy used in frame of sunglasses. Titanium alloys are heat treated for a number of reasons, the main ones being to increase strength by solution treatment and aging as well as to optimize special properties, such as fracture toughness, fatigue strength and high temperature creep strength.

  3. Titanium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium

    Specific alloys are used in oil and gas downhole applications and nickel hydrometallurgy for their high strength (e. g.: titanium beta C alloy), corrosion resistance, or both. The pulp and paper industry uses titanium in process equipment exposed to corrosive media, such as sodium hypochlorite or wet chlorine gas (in the bleachery). [108]

  4. Ti-6Al-4V - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ti-6Al-4V

    Studies of titanium alloys used in armors began in the 1950s at the Watertown Arsenal, which later became a part of the Army Research Laboratory. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] A 1948 graduate of MIT, Stanley Abkowitz (1927-2017) was a pioneer in the titanium industry and is credited for the invention of the Ti-6Al-4V during his time at the US Army’s Watertown ...

  5. Titanium aluminide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_aluminide

    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 .

  6. Titanium biocompatibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_biocompatibility

    In titanium alloys such as Ti-Zr and Ti-Nb, zirconium and niobium ions that are liberated due to corrosion are not released into the patient's body, but rather added to the passivation layer. [10] The alloying elements in the passive layer add a degree of biocompatibility and corrosion resistance depending on the original alloy composition of ...

  7. Nickel titanium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel_titanium

    Nickel titanium, also known as nitinol, is a metal alloy of nickel and titanium, where the two elements are present in roughly equal atomic percentages. Different alloys are named according to the weight percentage of nickel; e.g., nitinol 55 and nitinol 60 .

  8. Liquidmetal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquidmetal

    It is used for, among other things, golf clubs, watches, and covers of cell phones. The alloy was the result of a research program into amorphous metals carried out at Caltech. It was the first of a series of experimental alloys that could achieve an amorphous structure at relatively slow cooling rates.

  9. Titanium powder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_powder

    The tiny droplets are spherical and measure between 50 and 350 μm. The TGA process has been used to produce a wide variety of materials such as commercially pure (CP) titanium, conventional alpha-beta and beta alloys. [5] In plasma atomization (PA) process, a titanium wire is atomized by 3 inert gas plasma jets to form spherical metal powders.
