Titanium and Titanium Alloys


Both titanium and aluminum alloys are used extensive in aircraft and aerospace systems. There is a thread on aluminum and its alloys, so I thought it would be worthwhile to have one on titanium and its alloys.

WahChang is a big titanium alloy producer, and they periodically publish articles on their products. For example -

Phoenix Mars Lander: NASA Team Approves ATI 425® Titanium for Mission to Mars
BY: STEPHANIE O’CONNOR — ATI Wah Chang

From the surface of the moon to the depths of the ocean, ATI Wah Chang alloys have encountered many challenging environments. This August another Wah Chang alloy, ATI 425® Titanium, will be facing one of its toughest challenges yet – Mars. Chosen for its good cold formability and high strength, ATI 425® was selected as the structural material of choice for the Thermal Evolved Gas Analyzer (TEGA), one of the scientific instruments being used on the Phoenix Mars Lander (see Figure 1), which is set to launch in August 2007. The Lander’s mission is to study the history of water and habitability potential on the cold, desert planet.
