Highlights
Introduction and Scope titanium was originally discovered in the 18th century [1], significant developments in the titanium industry only occurred in the middle of the 20th century
Improvements in extractive metallurgy and processing methods have made titanium-based alloys more accessible to alternative industries. Industries currently utilising these materials include the sports, biomedical, and marine sectors. As part of this Special Issue, I am delighted to present a collection of high-quality papers which cover a range of topics from the extensive field of titanium alloys, including processing, mechanical properties, microstructural evolution, titanium-based composites, and titanium aluminides
The paper by Yu et al [3] provides an insight into the possibilities of isothermal atmospheric sintering of commercially pure titanium powders, generating satisfactory mechanical properties
Summary
Introduction and Scope titanium was originally discovered in the 18th century [1], significant developments in the titanium industry only occurred in the middle of the 20th century. The aerospace industry faces challenges related to increasing operating temperatures and the development of polymer-based composites, innovative solutions, including metal–matrix composites and titanium aluminides, provide pathways for future development. Improvements in extractive metallurgy and processing methods have made titanium-based alloys more accessible to alternative industries.
