[Column] What is Titanium Alloy: Main Features, Types, Mechanical Properties, and Applications

It can also be used as a medical component such as artificial bones! It can be divided into three types based on differences in crystal structure.

Titanium alloy, as the name suggests, is an alloy primarily composed of titanium. It is manufactured and used with the purpose of further enhancing the advantages of titanium or compensating for its disadvantages by adding other metals. Titanium alloys are characterized by being lightweight and strong, as well as resistant to rust; however, they also have the drawbacks of being expensive and difficult to process. Based on the crystal structure of the metal, titanium alloys can be classified into three types: α-type alloys, β-type alloys, and α+β-type alloys, each differing in ease of processing, the metals added, and their applications. This article will explain the characteristics, types, and main applications of titanium alloys.
