Architectural Titanium reinforcement rods are being used in the restoration of antiquities such as the Parthenon and to repair concrete bridge structures In Japan, commercially pure titanium is being used for roofing, window frames, eaves and gables, flashing, curtain walls, railings, ventilators, and interior and exterior appendages. In the United States, titanium is bonded to glass for exterior use in buildings. The outstanding corrosion and erosion resistance of titanium provides protection against environmental pollution and contamination of process streams. Design for corrosion resistance and optimum heat transfer with all liquid systems, condensing and evaporating is therefore possible. The bio-compatibility and strength of titanium make it an ideal material for dental posts and other oral prosthetics.
Bone naturally adheres to the surface oxide of titanium without additional coatings.
Due to recycling of waste fluids and the need for greater equipment reliability and life span, titanium has become the standard material for drum washers, diffusion bleach washers, pumps, piping systems and heat exchangers in the bleaching section of pulp and paper plants. This is particularly true for the equipment developed for chlorine dioxide bleaching systems. Ultrasentrifuges Titanium has an established application in medical ultracentrifuges. Titanium is the most bio-compatible of all metals due to its total resistance to attack by body fluids, high strength and low modulus. Titanium is widely used for implants, surgical devices, and pacemaker cases.
