Titanium is a chemical element with symbol Ti andatomic number 22. It is a lustrous transition metalwith a silver color, low density and high strength. Itis highly resistant to corrosion in sea water, aquaregia and chlorine.
Titanium was discovered in Cornwall, Great Britain,by William Gregor in 1791 and named by MartinHeinrich Klaproth for the Titans of Greek mythology.The element occurs within a number of mineraldeposits, principally rutile and ilmenite, which arewidely distributed in the Earth's crust andlithosphere, and it is found in almost all living
things, rocks, water bodies, and soils.[2] The metalis extracted from its principal mineral ores via the
Kroll process[3] or the Hunter process. Its mostcommon compound, titanium dioxide, is a popularphotocatalyst and is used in the manufacture of
white pigments.[4] Other compounds includetitanium tetrachloride (TiCl4), a component of smokescreens and catalysts; and titanium trichloride(TiCl3), which is used as a catalyst in the production
of polypropylene.[2]
Titanium can be alloyed with iron, aluminium,vanadium, and molybdenum, among otherelements, to produce strong, lightweight alloys foraerospace (jet engines, missiles, and spacecraft),military, industrial process (chemicals and petro-chemicals, desalination plants, pulp, and paper),automotive, agri-food, medical prostheses,orthopedic implants, dental and endodonticinstruments and files, dental implants, sportinggoods, jewelry, mobile phones, and other
applications.[2]
The two most useful properties of the metal arecorrosion resistance and the highest strength-
to-density ratio of any metallic element.[5] In itsunalloyed condition, titanium is as strong as some
steels, but less dense.[6] There are two allotropic
forms[7] and five naturally occurring isotopes of this
element, 46Ti through 50Ti, with 48Ti being the most
abundant (73.8%).[8] Although they have the samenumber of valence electrons and are in the samegroup in the periodic table, titanium and zirconiumdiffer in many chemical and physical properties.
