Titanium is a strong and lightweight refractory metal. It is a lustrous transition metal with a silver color, low density, and high strength. Titanium is resistant to corrosion in sea water, aqua regia, and chlorine.
Titanium can't be easily welded without experiencing distortion in the heat-affected zone. It can be alloyed with elements such as iron, aluminum, vanadium, and molybdenum, among other elements, to produce strong lightweight alloys for aerospace (jet engines, missiles, and spacecraft), military, industrial processes (chemicals and petrochemicals, desalination plants, pulp, and paper), automotive, agri-food, medical prostheses, orthopedic implants, dental and endodontic instruments and files, dental implants, sporting goods, jewelry, mobile phones, and other applications.
Ti-6Al-4V (or Grade 5 titanium) is the most commonly used alloy. More than half of all titanium produced is used in aircraft engines and frames. The SR-71 "Blackbird" was one of the first aircraft to make extensive use of titanium within its structure.
Despite only being as strong as low-grade steel, titanium is incredibly light. Its strength-to-density ratio is the highest of any metallic element. However, steel is 45% denser than titanium. While titanium is denser than aluminum, it is less dense than steel, copper and nickel.
Even though Titanium is not a rare element, it is usually found in low concentrations and is quite difficult to extract in large amounts. Therefore, products made from Titanium tend to be more expensive than those made from more common metals like Aluminum or Iron.
Titanium is non-toxic and biocompatible (non-coercive), making it ideal for medical applications such as surgical implements and implants, prosthetics and orthodontics. Titanium is non-ferromagnetic, which makes it useful for products such as MRI scanners where a magnetic metal may disrupt the functioning of the equipment.
Its resistance to corrosion from seawater makes it ideal for use in marine applications such as propeller shafts, rigging, and heat exchangers in seawater, desalination plants, and heat exchangers in power plants.
