Corrosion resistant behaviour of titanium
The corrosion resistance of titanium in reducing acid media can be enhanced by relatively small concentrations of certain precious metals (of the order of 0.1 wt%). Precious metals (≧ 0.05 wt% Pd), nickel (≧ 0.5 wt% Ni), and/or molybdenum (≧ 4 wt% Mo) are considered beneficial in alloying [17].

Corrosion of titanium: Part 2: Effects of surface treatments
Titanium has outstanding corrosion resistance due to a thin, amorphous, nonstoichiometric TiO 2 protective layer (max. 10-nm thick (1)) that is formed spontaneously on the surface when exposed to an aerated environment. This pro-tective layer is very stable and allows the use of titanium in severe working conditions, such as offshore; in an ...
