Titanium is particularly suitable for applications where high corrosion-resistance, strength and low weight are important. The metal has a white-metallic shine, featuring light weight as well as high strength, ductility, corrosion resistance and thermal resistance. Titanium is resistant to diluted sulphuric acid, hydrochloric acid, solutions containing chloride, cold nitric acid as well as most organic acids and alkaline solutions, such as caustic soda.
