Definition of titanium in English:

titanium

noun tɪˈteɪnɪəmtʌɪˈteɪnɪəm
mass noun
  • The chemical element of atomic number 22, a hard silver-grey metal of the transition series, used in strong, light, corrosion-resistant alloys.

    One of the transition metals, titanium is a common element in the earth's crust; the main sources are the minerals ilmenite and rutile. It is used to make strong, light corrosion-resistant alloys. Very large quantities of the dioxide are manufactured for use as a white pigment in paper, paint, etc.

    Example sentencesExamples
    • The zoning is caused by fluctuations in the concentration of iron versus titanium.
    • That's stuff's a weird alloy made out of titanium and God knows what else.
    • The effect of titanium and vanadium on the strength of wrought alloys appears to be negligible.
    • It was titanium with a large glowing sword painted on the heavy silver door.
    • This is true of highly hardened aluminum alloys as well as titanium alloys and hardened steels.
    • This effect is completely absent in partially substituted steel without titanium.
    • Other residual deposits are sources of chromium, titanium, rare-earth elements, and even gold.
    • A metal additive in the charge, such as titanium or tungsten, gives the flame a sparkling effect.
    • Could you add carbon to titanium or vanadium to make them even harder and stronger?
    • Implants are commonly made of titanium, a metal that is well-tolerated by the body.
    • Types of metals which are commonly used are stainless steel, gold, titanium and platinum.
    • As is the case with steel, titanium is alloyed with other metals to increase its strength.
    • For example, titanium is more resistant to corrosion than most steel alloys and is also half the density of steel.
    • Fairly strong bonds of titanium with itself, copper, and steel have been produced.
    • Some of these new guns have bigger bores but are even lighter in weight due to the modern miracle of titanium.
    • Scandium is an element with the resilience of titanium and the light weight of aluminum.
    • We've come a long way with handguns, from iron to steel to stainless to alloy to titanium.
    • Silver is a white grey metal which is softer than gold, platinum and titanium.
    • A flat plate of steel alloy or titanium replaces the top end of the tibia.
    • He is a firm supporter of titanium, the metal that is used in everything from golf clubs to airplanes.

Origin

Late 18th century: from Titan, on the pattern of uranium.

Rhymes

cranium, geranium, germanium, Herculaneum, uranium
