The alloy name in the United States can include a company name or trademark in conjunction with the composition for alloyed titanium or the strength, ie, ultimate tensile strength for Timet and yield strength for other U.S. producers, for unalloyed titanium. The common alloys and specifications are shown in Table 14. 

Annual world production of titanium carbide is 1200—1500 metric tons. On an iadustrial scale, it is produced most often through the reaction of Ti02 with carbon black (see Titaniumand titanium alloys Titanium compounds). 

Titanium-Based Casting and Wrought Alloys. Titanium-based alloys offer an attractive alternative to gold alloys and to the base-metal alloys that contain nickel or chromium. On a volume basis the cost of titanium is roughly comparable to that of the chromium-containing alloys, but the price of titanium tends to be more stable because its ores are abundant and widely distributed (see Titaniumand titanium alloys).

Spiral-plate exchangers are fabricated from any material that can be cold worked and welded. Materials commonly used include carbo steel, stainless steel, nickel and nickel alloys, titanium, Hastelloys, and copper alloys. Baked phenolic-resin coatings are sometimes applied. Electrodes can also be wound into the assembly to anodically protect surfaces against corrosion. 

The hydrogen effect on ductility and the flow stress will be considered first on the example of non-alloyed titanium. The Ti - H phase diagram is given in Fig. 1, and Fig. 2 shows the temperature dependence of ductility of Ti-a H alloys, A , for several X values. Tensile tests were run at a rate e 10" s . Ductility of the commercial... 

Certain peculiarity was characteristic of each alloy studied. For example, any hydrogen content embrittled the non-alloyed titanium at room temperature. Other behavior was observed on the Ti-6A1-4.5V alloy at room temperature and low strain rates. The ultimate compressive strain of this alloy without hydrogen was about 8.5% at = 10 s while hydrogen alloying to r = 0.27 increased this value to about 20% and to 10 to 14% at other x.

The method is more useful with titanium, and the effect of alloying titanium with a small amount of palladium is described in Section 5.4. The use of platinum in the prevention of hydrogen embrittlement in tantalum. 

This process uses a moving laser beam, directed by a computer, to prepare the model. The model is made up of layers having thicknesses about 0.005-0.020 in. (0.012-0.50 mm) that are polymerized into a solid product. Advanced techniques also provides fast manufacturing of precision molds (152). An example is the MIT three-dimensional printing (3DP) in which a 3-D metal mold (die, etc.) is created layer by layer using powdered metal (300- or 400-series stainless steel, tool steel, bronze, nickel alloys, titanium, etc.). Each layer is inkjet-printed with a plastic binder. The print head generates and deposits micron-sized droplets of a proprietary water-based plastic that binds the powder together.

In the chlorate removal system the pH may be very low. Here the material of preference is some kind of alloyed titanium. The noble alloy constituents is at the 0.05% level, which is lower than that found in the established grade 7 alloy. However, temperature and pH tolerance will be important when deciding which alloy to employ. 

Researchers have tried to fabricate plates using many different metals— mainly, stainless steel, aluminum alloys, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, copper alloys, intermetallic alloys, and metal-based composites such as carbon fiber-reinforced aluminum alloys, carbon fiber reinforced copper alloys, etc. [26]. Although Ta, Hf, Nb, Zr, and Ti metals show good corrosion resistance and chemical stability [6], the cost of fhese metals is too high for them to be used as materials in metal plates. That is why relatively cheaper iron-based alloys, particularly stainless steel, have been popularly studied as plate material. In the following secfions, we will infroduce sfainless sfeel (SS) and SS plates, which have been extensively investigated and show promise for the final applications [6,11]. 

Powder Formation. Metallic powders can be formed by any number of techniques, including the reduction of corresponding oxides and salts, the thermal dissociation of metal compounds, electrolysis, atomization, gas-phase synthesis or decomposition, or mechanical attrition. The atomization method is the one most commonly used, because it can produce powders from alloys as well as from pure metals. In the atomization process, a molten metal is forced through an orifice and the stream is broken up with a jet of water or gas. The molten metal forms droplets to minimize the surface area, which solidify very rapidly. Currently, iron-nickel-molybdenum alloys, stainless steels, tool steels, nickel alloys, titanium alloys, and aluminum alloys, as well as many pure metals, are manufactured by atomization processes. 

That is, ttcr is directly proportional to K c/cry) since oh is a fraction of Oy. Thus, the larger the value of acr, the more attractive is the material, since cracks can be easily detected without the use of sophisticated equipment. The Ashby plot of fracture toughness versus density (Figure 8.10) indicates that of the three classes of materials selected with Criterion 1, only the engineering composites and engineering alloys provide suitable possibilities for Criterion 2. Again, of the alloys, titanium, steel, nickel, and copper alloys are the best here. 

The range of suitable high-strength and corrosion-resistant steels can be extended by alloyed titanium types and others. 

A material is a biomaterial when it meets certain requirements it has to have the right physical and chemical properties and, in addition, be biocompatible, which means that it must not be rejected by the body. The material may not release any substances which might activate the host s immune system. As indicated earlier, the first biomaterials were metals and these still play an important part. Of all metals and alloys, titanium appears to be accepted best by tissues. Actually this is rather peculiar, as titanium is relatively rare in vegetable and animal tissue but relatively abundant in the earth s crust (0.2% of the mass of the earth s crust is titanium only six other metals are even more abundant). For some time now, titanium has been used in dental surgery and in attaching and replacing bones and joints.

High-purity metals and superalloys are required for the aeronautics, electronics, instruments, space, and defense industries the raw materials are at present imported. Primarily, these special metals include nickel-and cobalt-based superalloys, high-strength iron-based alloys, titanium-based alloys, controlled-expansion alloys, and magnetic materials. Keeping in view the importance of these metals and alloys and the expertise available in India for making them, the NCST has identified two projects for their development the setting up of a special metal and superalloys plant and the development of controlled-expansion alloys. 

Corrosion-resistant metals and alloys, including stainless steels, nickel alloys, titanium, zirconium, and tantalum can be applied as linings or claddings to cheaper steel substrates. Most (>90%) are applied by roll bonding, but weld overlaying and explosive bonding are also used, as appropriate. Particularly expensive metals, such as tantalum, can be used as very thin ( 0.5 mm) loose linings. 

The method involving the Mo-V-P acid has been used in determinations of phosphorus in biological tissues [127], plant material [128], fruits [129], fish products [130], foodstuffs [131], phosphate minerals [132], cast iron and steel [133,134], niobium, zirconium and its alloys, titanium and tungsten, aluminium, copper, and white metal [135], nickel alloys [134,135], metallurgy products [136], molybdenum concentrates [137], silicon tetrachloride [7], cement [138], and lubricants[139]. The flow injection technique has been applied for determining phosphate in minerals [140] and in plant materials [141].

The above study shows clearly that alloying titanium of technical purity (alloy BT1-0) with silicon may ensure tensile strength around 1050 MPa at around 9 % of elongation (Fig. 1). It means that a margin to enhance these properties with alloying by other elements like aluminum and zirconium traditionally introduced to improve high temperature properties of titanium. 

Alloying titanium with silicon is influencing on final structure of as-cast alloy. Interval of silicon content 2-3-wt.% is critical. At the critical amount of silicon the Ti-Si-alloy solidifies with formation of polygonal structure with decreasing grain size at increase of silicon content. At higher silicon content structure of the Ti-Si-alloys is dendritic-eutectic one with the titanium-silicide eutectic between dendrites.
