KEY FACTS

Discovered in 1791 by amateur geologist, Pastor William Gregor

Named after the Titans in Greek mythology.

Known for its low density and high strength.

Commonly alloyed with iron, vanadium, molybdenum, and aluminum.

Titanium is often used in medical devices because of it high strength and inertness to the human body.
