Big picture

Time period Development summary
1950s–1960s In the 1950s and 1960s, the Soviet Union pioneer the use of titanium in military and submarine applications[1] (Alfa class and Mike class)[2] as part of programs related to the Cold War.[3]

1795 titanium "Klaproth"
1910 "Pure metallic titanium (99.9%) was first prepared in 1910 by Matthew A. Hunter"
1925 Titanium of very high purity is made in small quantities when Anton Eduard van Arkel and Jan Hendrik de Boer discover the iodide, or crystal bar, process, by reacting with iodine and decomposing the formed vapours over a hot filament to pure metal.[4]
1932 "Titanium metal was not used outside the laboratory until 1932 when William Justin Kroll proved that it can be produced by reducing titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) with calcium"
2006 According to 2006 data, the world's largest producer, Russian-based VSMPO-AVISMA, is estimated to account for about 29% of the world market share.[5]
