ABSTRACT
A combination of high specific strength, heat resistance, corrosion resistance, and other positive properties open broad vistas for applications of titanium and its alloys in various industries.
The largest consumer of titanium alloys is the aerospace industry. In the recent decade, titanium and its alloys have been increasingly more used in chemical machine building, shipbuilding, the auto industry, in equipment for the oil and gas industry, the food industry, medicine, and civil engineering.
