      Market Definition

      Titanium is the ninth-most common element in the Earth’s crust. The majority of the titanium extracted is in the form of titanium dioxide, which is used as a pigment. The rest is used in making metals. Titanium dioxide (TiO2, titanium (IV) oxide, or Titania) occurs naturally in various rocks and mineral sands. It is a white solid inorganic substance that is thermally stable, chemically inert, non-flammable, has excellent ultraviolet (UV) resistant qualities, and acts as a UV-absorbent. It has the highest refractive index and is one of the whitest materials on Earth. When ground into a fine powder, it transforms into a white pigment that provides whiteness and opacity to products. It is mainly sourced from the minerals anatase, brookite, ilmenite, leucoxene, perovskite, rutile, and sphene. Titanium dioxide is utilized in paints & coatings, plastics, paper, inks, and other end-use industries.

      In the form of metal, titanium is known for its superior performance properties, such as high strength-to-weight ratio, low density, ductility, biocompatibility, high melting point, and corrosion resistance. In the commercially pure form, titanium has low strength and high ductility and is, therefore, used in applications that require low strength. However, in applications that demand high strength, titanium alloys are mainly used.
