The addition of titanium at very low levels is a traditional method of grain refining aluminum and its alloys. Certain international standard specifications do include mandatory limits for titanium, ...

Using grain refiners in aluminium castings helps improve die filling and mass feeding, to counteract solidification shrinkage. This results in an improved distribution of porosity, and so better ...

Researchers at Tohoku University have developed a groundbreaking titanium-aluminum (Ti-Al)-based superelastic alloy. This new material is not only lightweight but also strong, offering the unique ...

Dissimilar metal welding of titanium and aluminum alloys presents a multifaceted challenge owing to the inherent differences in their thermophysical properties and chemical affinities. The joining of ...

Researchers have developed a new 'high-entropy' metal alloy that has a higher strength-to-weight ratio than any other existing metal material. Researchers from North Carolina State University and ...

Looking deep inside titanium alloy has allowed researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) to manipulate the alignment of atoms and develop the strongest titanium alloy ever made.

A team of researchers has created a new class of titanium alloys that are strong and not brittle under tension, by integrating alloy and 3D-printing process designs. They say they embedded circular ...

Researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy's Oak Ridge and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratories have created a new metal alloy made up of five elements that gets tougher, stronger and more ...

Titanium Aluminum Alloy Plate Precision-engineered Titanium Aluminum Alloy Plate—lightweight, ultra-strong, and built for extreme performance. Perfect for aerospace, automotive, and high-tech ...

Previous research into lightweight steel has focused on mixing in aluminum in varying proportions to attempt to reduce the density, and therefore the weight. Unfortunately, upping the aluminum content ...
