Challenges

• Cost of Raw Materials and Energy: Titanium production is energy-intensive, and the Kroll process used for extraction is expensive and complex.
• Global Supply Chain Risk: Major producers like Russia and China dominate the titanium sponge market, posing geopolitical risks.
• Difficult-to-Machine Properties: Titanium’s hardness and poor thermal conductivity lead to tool wear and longer production times.
• Limited Recycling Infrastructure: While titanium is recyclable, closed-loop systems for aerospace-grade material are underdeveloped.
• Design Limitations in Mass Markets: Cost and complexity often limit titanium’s use to high-value, low-volume applications.

Conclusion

Overcoming these challenges requires investment in innovation, better supply chain resilience, and industry collaboration. With the right focus, titanium alloys can expand into wider markets.
