While titanium implants such as artificial hips can greatly improve patients' lives, they're also subject to serious bacterial infections. An experimental new antibacterial titanium alloy, however, ...

Engineers at Monash University have developed a new 3D-printable titanium alloy with a unique microstructure that makes it ultra-strong. Not only is it stronger than most other forms of titanium, but ...

A new alloy combines the best of the refractory metals with cutting-edge engineering. Even these extremely tough metals can ...

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 ...

The discussion regarding the manufacturing applications of titanium has been dominated by Grade 5, 6-4 titanium for decades. This has largely been because of the extensive use of this alloy in ...

Engineers from RMIT University have produced a new type of 3D-printed titanium that's about a third cheaper than commonly used titanium alloys. The team used readily available and cheaper alternative ...

Six months into a research project on the advanced manufacturing of titanium alloys, College of Engineering Professor Yufeng Zheng sees the potential to manufacture this lightweight but strong ...

Earlier in this series, we made the case for copper being “the metal that built technology.” Some readers took issue with that statement, noting correctly that meteoric iron and gold were worked long ...

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. The breakthrough, published in the ...
