TITANIUM
Titanium is absolutely immune to environmental attack, regardless of pollutants. Where other metals exhibit limited lifespan, titanium endures. It withstands urban pollution, marine environments, the sulfur compounds of industrial areas and is failure-proof in even more aggressive environments.

LIGHT WEIGHT
The specific gravity of titanium is 4.51 g/cm3 - about 60% that of steel, half that of copper and 1.7 times that of aluminum.

STRENGTH
In addition to having excellent mechanical strength (comparable to mild steel), titanium is durable and shock resistant. Its modulus of elasticity (a measure of strain rate) is half that of stainless steel.

HISTORY
Titanium is Latin and refers to the Titans, the first sons of the earth in Mythology. It was discovered in England by William Gregor in 1791 and named by Klaproth four years later. It was nearly a hundred years later (1887) when impure titanium was first prepared by Nilson and Pettersson. It is the ninth most abundant element in the earth's crust and is also found in meteorites and in the sun. It is found in the ash of coal, in plants and even in the human body.
