The price of TiCl4, one ofta tinium rare material, is rising from July, 2014. The amount of increase has over 12%. From the beginning of September, the price of titanium sponge start to rise as well. Considering this case, some experts speculate that the price of titanium sponge and titanium goods will be a new round rise. So maybe in the near few months the titanium market will meet a new prosperity!

The Application of Different Grade Titanium Material
The Application of Different Grade Titanium Material is following:
CP grade 1 can be used in the deep drawing parts for its good elongation and excellent corrosion-resistance.
CP grade 2 is used the most widely in the commercially pure titanium.
CP grade 3 is almost only used in pressure vessel.
CP grade 4 can be use in some fittings parts and fastening pieces, but for complex shape need 300
degree celsius to form.
Alloy grade 5, Ti-6Al-4V, is the most widely used in the titanium alloys because of its comprehensive mechanical,
physical and chemical properties.
Alloy grade 7, add little palladium in cp titanium and it has the most excellent corrosion-resistance. Of course it costs higher.
Alloy grade 9, Ti-3Al-2.5V, is the most widely used in the golf clubs and bicycle girders.
Alloy grade 12, it has the similar properties with the grade 7 but costs lesser.
Alloy grade 23, Ti-6Al-4V ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) can be use in the medical appliance.

Titanium Application -Orthopedic
The 1950's saw the first use of titanium in orthopedic applications and now titanium is the standard material of choice for orthopedic devices such as hip joints, bone screws, knee joints, spinal fusion cages, shoulder and elbow joints, and bone plates.
Titanium has been selected as a metal of choice in the orthopedic segment of the market because it is inert in the human body, it is resistant to attack body fluids, has proven to be compatible with bone density, is strong and has a low modulus, hence making it an excellent material of choice in the orthopedic arena.
The human body readily accepts titanium as it has proven to be more biocompatible than stainless steel or cobalt chrome. In addition, titanium has a higher fatigue strength than many other metals. Compatibility with MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and CT (Computed Technology) also contribute to the selection of titanium as the material of choice in orthopedic applications.
Products used in this application include: bar, plate, sheet, wire.

Titanium Application-Dental Implant
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root used in dentistry to support restorations that resemble a tooth or group of teeth.
Virtually all dental implants placed today are root-form endosseous implants. In other words, virtually all dental implants placed in the 21st century appear similar to an actual tooth root (and thus possess a "root-form") and are placed within the bone (end- being the Greek prefix for "in" and osseous referring to "bone").
Prior to the advent of root-form endosseous implants, most implants were either blade endosseous implants, in that the shape of the metal piece placed within the bone resembled a flat blade, or subperiosteal implants, in which a framework was constructed to lie upon and was attached with screws to the exposed bone of the jaws.
Dental implants can be used to support a number of dental prostheses, including crowns, implant-supported bridges or dentures.
Titanium was actually first used in dentistry in the 1940's. Today titanium is routinely utilized in the dental industry for implants and orthodontic braces.
The titanium implant acts as an artificial root for a tooth and is securely implanted into bone to provide a solid base for a tooth. Compared to traditional orthodontic braces made of steel, titanium braces are stronger, lighter, and more compatible to body fluids and bone density.
Titanium has been selected a metal of choice in the dental market due to its total resistance to attack by body fluids, high strength and low modulus.
