#TitaniumOpenAirHeating

When titanium is heated in the open air, it reacts strongly with the gases around it. This reaction forms different substances like titanium oxide, titanium nitride, and titanium hydride on the surface and just beneath it. These substances are hard and brittle, which means they can easily crack when exposed to high levels of stress. The problem arises because the core of the titanium and its surface have different properties. This creates a stress-raising effect on the surface, preventing the stress from being evenly distributed throughout the titanium. As a result, the titanium can crack and break apart.

Have you ever wondered about the effects of open-air heating on titanium? In our latest post, we explore the formation of the alpha case and its impact on the properties of titanium.

Open-air heating of titanium can cause a layer of brittle titanium oxide (called an alpha case) to form on the surface, which can weaken the Titanium and its alloys and make them more susceptible to cracking and fracture. Therefore, it's important to avoid open-air heating of titanium to maintain its overall properties and reliability.
