This research was recently published in the September 21st edition of the journal Nature. One of the largest potential uses is in car manufacture. Replacing steel car parts with titanium would lower a vehicle's weight, reducing both fuel use and emissions. Not only that, but considering the strength of titanium, it would probably result in less wear and tear on automobile parts resulting in lower maintenance costs. Titanium's potential uses are limitless, as long as we can afford it.
