Abstract
Titanium and its alloys are widely used in aircraft, rocket production, shipbuilding, machine industry, chemical and food industry, medicine due to their high specific strength, good corrosion resistance and biological passivity. However, titanium has properties which limit its application as construction material. Particularly, tendency to surface adhesion and galling at friction results in its lowest wear resistance among construction materials. The application of titanium alloys in friction units and in the places of direct contact is impossible without additional surface treatment for higher strength. The corrosion resistance of titanium alloys is not often satisfactory. Therefore titanium alloys also need the additional protection in the aggressive media.
