One of the main reasons preventing the distribution of more titanium is its high cost. Besides, the cyclical nature of the aviation industry also Ti affects implementation.
Economic status in key application areas, esp. aerospace industry, significantly affects the market for titanium, leading to its cyclical bottom. In 1958, demand for titanium decreased significantly because the military shifted its focus from manned aircraft the missile to that steel is more appropriate. Since then, the titanium industry has had several cycles of high and low demand. Asia financial crisis of the late'90s hit drastically the demand and production of titanium. The year 2001 witnessed the revival largely hampered by global economic slowdown.
Today, about 80% titanium is used by the aerospace industry and 20% not the aerospace industry. According to Roskill, the commercial aerospace industry in the U.S. and Europe are recovering strongly, and aerospace demand for high quality titanium and titanium alloy mill products is growing at around 7% per year. While the U.S. has been the airline industry in an approximate way for quite some time especially after 9 / 11 terrorist attack, international airlines are a lot of orders for new planes now.
In the next ten years, the titanium industry could continue to expand driven by increased consumption Titanium is likely to remain stable until 2015.
The worldwide fleet of passenger aircraft is expected to double by 2025, new passenger aircraft much greater use of high proportion of titanium in aircraft today. The increased cost of oil in recent years has encouraged more orders of Fuel aircraft built with titanium.
Paint and varnish industry, which is not the main, but rather stable Ti-sector consumption growth will be demonstrated in demand for titanium products. Global demand for titanium, the strong pace of the markets across the spectrum of the commercial aerospace, and defense markets Industrial consumption is expected to build on its recent growth, both in the short run, deep in the next decade. According to some experts, Ti everywhere demand will grow to over 300 million pounds by 2015.
Good prospects exist for you use in the Japanese market of sports equipment. Market medical products has become an area of application of stable titanium. More than 1000mt titanium implants were used in each year. According to the titanium Group (United Kingdom), titanium has found wide application in medicine due to its nature free of corrosion and bio-compatibility with human tissue. Application titanium in dentistry has been tripled to 2000mt / y in recent years, experts say the American Dental Association.
Japan has been using titanium in architecture and construction of 25 years. Application of titanium in these fields has been growing not only in Japan. The new United Arab Emirates airport uses 1.5mln pounds of titanium. Titanium-employing facilities are being built in Switzerland, Singapore, Egypt, USA, Canada, United Kingdom, Germany, Belgium, Peru.
In 2006, titanium in the ability of the CIS countries is estimated at 63.5K mt / year, representing 46.4% of worldwide capacity. Three countries, Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan, Ti feature capabilities. The main consumers of titanium feedstock throughout the world are producers of titanium dioxide, which represents 95% of demand. In the CIS countries, the situation is different: about 65% of concentrate used to produce titanium sponge.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia has lost the ore reserve base of its titanium industry, since the deposits under exploration are located in Kazakhstan and Ukraine. Besides, the production facilities of TiO2 is concentrated in Ukraine. The demand for titanium dioxide has been growing with the expansion of many industries, primarily paint and varnish industry. Moreover, the current behavior of the global market also spurs interest in this product.
Therefore, the creation of large national TiO2 production facility is on the agenda in Russia today. The goal is to eliminate the dependence on Russia for imports TiO2. The first step towards achieving this goal is its own origin TiO2-related mining and raw material base.
