Titanium foil is a thin sheet of titanium metal that is typically less than 0.5 millimeters thick.

Titanium foil is produced through a process known as rolling, which involves passing a titanium ingot through a series of rollers to gradually reduce its thickness. The resulting titanium foil is typically very thin, with a thickness ranging from a few micrometers to a few millimeters. Titanium foil is valued for its high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent resistance to corrosion, and biocompatibility with the human body.

What is titanium?

titanium

Titanium is a relatively new type of metal that exhibits unique properties which are affected by the presence of impurities such as carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, and oxygen. The impurity content in pure titanium is typically less than 0.1%, resulting in a metal with low strength but high plasticity. For industrial purposes, titanium with a purity of 99.5% is commonly used. This grade of titanium has a density of 4.5 g/cm³, a melting point of 1800℃, and a thermal conductivity of 15.24 W/(m. K). It also has a tensile strength of 539 MPa, an elongation of 25%, a section shrinkage rate of 25%, an elastic modulus of 1.078 × 10⁵ MPa, and a hardness of HB195.
