Using C844 to Determine Carbon in Refractory and Reactive Metals
Reference Number: 203-821-472
Overview
Titanium alloys are widely used in aerospace, medical, and military applications due to their strength, low density, and corrosion resistance. This document discusses carbon as an alpha-stabilizing element in titanium, its impact on alloy properties, and why controlling carbon as an impurity is critical to meeting strict quality standards in commercially pure and alloyed titanium.
