What is Titanium alloy?
'''Titanium alloys''' are [[metal]]s which contain a [[mixture]] of [[titanium]] and other [[chemical element]]s. They have very high [[tensile strength]] and [[toughness]]. They are light in [[weight]], resist [[corrosion]] very strongly and can withstand extreme [[temperature]]s.<ref name=jos >{{citation|url=http://www.tms.org/pubs/journals/JOM/1005/boyer-1005.html|title=Attributes, Characteristics, and Applications of Titanium and Its Alloys|first=R.
