Abstract Titanium alloys are the principal replacements, and in many cases also prime candidate materials to replace (i) aerospace special and advanced steels, owing to their significantly higher usable specific strength properties, (ii) aluminium alloys due to their better elevated temperature properties and (iii) nickel-base superalloys for much of the high pressure compressors (HPCs) of modern engines, owing to their superior medium temperature (up to 550 °C) creep strength and acceptable oxidation and corrosion resistances. This chapter summarizes the chemical compositions, properties and applications of commercially pure α-titanium, near-α, α + β and β titanium alloys.
