Lightweight, High Specific Strength, and High Corrosion-Resistance
Japanese technology helping lives. Titanium’s biocompatible and non-magnetic properties make it an indispensable material primarily used for implants in the medical field.
Outside of the medical field, the light, strong, and rust-resistant properties make titanium compatible for application in severe environments as an essential material in advanced technology.
Moreover, the metal can be anodized to add color and is utilized for accessories such as wrist watches and earrings.
Application
Artificial joints, artificial dental roots, bone fracture fixation, surgical instruments, catheters, and various other medical products,
aircrafts, chemical plants, heat exchangers, golf clubs, earrings, stationery
