Titanium & Purple Snowflake Titanium

Titanium is a lustrous transition metal renowned for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, outstanding corrosion resistance (particularly to seawater, chlorine, and various acids), and excellent biocompatibility. It is non-magnetic, has a low thermal expansion coefficient, and maintains strength at elevated temperatures. While commercially pure titanium (Grades 1-4) is ductile, its alloys, such as Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5), offer significantly higher tensile strength and hardness. 'Purple Snowflake Titanium' refers to titanium that has undergone a specialized surface treatment, typically through anodization or controlled heat coloring, to create a distinctive purple hue often accompanied by a unique, crystalline, or 'snowflake-like' pattern. This treatment is primarily aesthetic, enhancing the visual appeal of the material while largely preserving the underlying mechanical and corrosion-resistant properties of the base titanium.
