Learn more about Titanium Semi-Finished Products
Titanium is one of the most abundant elements in the Earth’s crust. The minerals rutile (TiO₂) and ilmenite (FeTiO₃) form the basis for our modern titanium materials. The Luxembourgish inventor and metallurgist Dr. William J. Kroll developed a chemical process (Kroll Process) in the 1940s to obtain metallic titanium sponge. The process derives its name from the appearance of the distillation container after opening. Titanium tetrachloride is reduced with magnesium to form 99.9% titanium sponge, which still serves as the basis for commercial production.
Titanium materials stand out for their exceptional mechanical properties and are indispensable in today’s aerospace industry. Today’s titanium alloys are adapted to meet the specific challenges of various high-performance industries. High strength with low density is the defining characteristic of this material family. Biocompatibility, low thermal expansion coefficient, and excellent corrosion resistance in oxidizing environments are additional advantages.

Application of Titanium Semi-Finished Products
Titanium belongs to the family of reactive metals, including materials such as zirconium, niobium, and tantalum. The reaction with oxygen gives these materials high corrosion resistance. Solid oxide layers form on the material surfaces. These materials can only be found in nature as mineral ores.
However, the high affinity of these materials for gases also has negative effects. During the production and processing of these materials, care must always be taken to avoid exposure to reactive gases. This places high demands on plant safety and processes and makes these materials relatively expensive compared to conventional stainless steels.
The oxidation resistance at higher temperatures is limited for all of these materials.
