Titanium hydride normally refers to the inorganic compound TiH 2 and related nonstoichiometric materials. [1] [2] It is commercially available as a stable grey/black powder, which is used as an additive in the production of Alnico sintered magnets, in the sintering of powdered metals, the production of metal foam, the production of powdered titanium metal and in pyrotechnics.

Titanium is one of the few elements that burns in pure nitrogen gas, reacting at 800 °C (1,470 °F) to form titanium nitride, which causes embrittlement. [29] Because of its high reactivity with oxygen, nitrogen, and many other gases, titanium that is evaporated from filaments is the basis for titanium sublimation pumps , in which titanium ...
Rust was also an important factor in the Silver Bridge disaster of 1967 in West Virginia, when a steel suspension bridge collapsed within a minute, killing 46 drivers and passengers who were on the bridge at the time. Similarly, corrosion of concrete-covered steel and iron can cause the concrete to spall, creating
Naturally occurring titanium (22 Ti) is composed of five stable isotopes; 46 Ti, 47 Ti, 48 Ti, 49 Ti and 50 Ti with 48 Ti being the most abundant (73.8% natural abundance).Twenty-one radioisotopes have been characterized, with the most stable being 44 Ti with a half-life of 60 years, 45 Ti with a half-life of 184.8 minutes, 51 Ti with a half-life of 5.76 minutes, and 52 Ti with a half-life of ...
Noble metals tend to be resistant to oxidation and other forms of corrosion, and this corrosion resistance is often considered to be a defining characteristic. Some exceptions are described below. Copper is dissolved by nitric acid and aqueous potassium cyanide .
Titanium(II) chloride is the chemical compound with the formula TiCl 2. The black solid has been studied only moderately, probably because of its high reactivity. [ 2 ] Ti(II) is a strong reducing agent: it has a high affinity for oxygen and reacts irreversibly with water to produce H 2 .
SOD1 binds copper and zinc ions and is one of three superoxide dismutases responsible for destroying free superoxide radicals in the body. The encoded isozyme is a soluble cytoplasmic and mitochondrial intermembrane space protein, acting as a homodimer to convert naturally occurring, but harmful, superoxide radicals to molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide.
