Anodizing titanium means improved corrosion resistance, durable colors and high biocompatibility. Friction between sliding surfaces is also reduced to a great extent.

Engineers from RMIT University have produced a new type of 3D-printed titanium that's about a third cheaper than commonly ...

Anodizing is an electrochemical process some jewelers use to change the color of metals such as titanium, aluminum, and niobium. Dipping a reactive metal into a "bath" mixture of low-sudsing ...

Titanium has a tendency to gall when in rubbing contact with itself and other surfaces. A number of techniques have been developed to engineer the titanium surface and overcome this problem: • ...

The alloy is the hardest known metallic substance compatible with living tissues, say US physicists. The material is four times harder than pure titanium and has applications in making longer ...

Titanium and some of its alloys are used as biomaterials for dental and orthopaedic applications. The most common grades used are commercially pure titanium and the Ti6Al4V alloy, derived from ...
