Titanium is an established metal when dealing with corrosion applications. Titanium is available in a range of different alloys with the most corrosion resistant grades being titanium 7, 11 (containing 0.15% palladium) and 12 (containing 0.3% Mo and 0.8% Ni). 

In the chemical processing industry, titanium and its alloys offers good corrosion resistance in many process solutions and owes it corrosion resistance to the strong oxide film. The oxide film formed on titanium is more protective than on stainless steel, and it often performs well in media such as seawater, wet chlorine and organic chlorides. While titanium offers good corrosion resistant to these solutions, it certainly is not immune to them especially at elevated temperature such as seawater at temperatures greater than 110C.

Titanium solutions could be found in a variety of industries which include chemical processing, pulp and paper and marine applications. A major use for titanium is in seawater or brackish water applications. It is also used extensively in the production of chorine.
