Elemental Analysis - Titanium (Ti)

Titanium, sert is a shiny and strong metal. Titanium is as strong as steel, but much less dense. Therefore, it can alloy with many metals, including aluminum, molybdenum, and iron. These alloys are mostly used in aircraft, spacecraft and missiles due to their low density and ability to withstand extreme temperatures. Titanium is also used in golf clubs, laptops, bicycles and crutches.

Power plant capacitors use titanium pipes due to their resistance to corrosion. Titanium is used in desalination plants and to protect the hulls of ships, submarines and other structures exposed to seawater, as it has excellent resistance to corrosion in seawater.

The largest use of titanium is in the form of titanium oxide. It is extensively used as a pigment in household paints, artist paints, plastics, enamels and papers. It is a bright white pigment with excellent covering power. It is also a good reflector of infrared radiation and is therefore used in solar observatories where visibility is poor.

Titanium oxide is used in sunscreens because it blocks UV light from reaching the skin.

Titanium has no known biological role. It is also non-toxic. But fine titanium dioxide dust is a suspected carcinogen.

In the tests and analyzes carried out in our organization, which has a wide range of technological equipment, trained and experienced staff and applies the most modern methods, national and international standards and legal regulations in force are complied with. Among the numerous tests carried out in this context, there are also titanium (Ti) testing services within the framework of elemental analysis.
