Application and development prospects of titanium and titanium alloys

Titanium is known as “all-round metal, space metal, and marine metal”. It is the third metal other than steel and aluminum. It has “high specific strength, excellent corrosion resistance, non-magnetic properties and excellent biocompatibility”. Characteristics. Since the 1950s, the titanium industry has developed rapidly due to the urgent need for aerospace technology. At present, titanium and titanium alloys are not only indispensable structural materials in the aerospace industry, but also widely used in shipbuilding, chemical, metallurgical, medical and other fields. Titanium and titanium alloys are increasingly closely related to people's daily lives, such as sports and leisure appliances, construction materials, computers, and automotive applications.
