Ferro titanium is produced by melting titanium scrap with the low carbon iron in an induction furnace.
Ferro titanium compared with pure titanium has some more advantages like: better dissolvability, low melt point, high density and lower price.
That caused steel refining (reacted with sulfur, carbon, oxygen and nitrogen and separated it in melt as slag type).
Usage:
- Upgrade steel structure (by grain-size control)
- De-graphitization of gray cast iron
- Use in automobile, aerial and ship building industries
