Is Titanium Important?
Titanium is very important.It is also very useful, is high in strength, has low density, durability and is corrosion resistant.It is also a highly heat resistant metal.
Without titanium, we wouldn't have paint,paper,and plastic.Planes would never be able to fly properly. We would never have rings to symbolize marriage, never have replacement hip joints to save lives. We would have never eaten from a fork. Thus, titanium is very important.

HOPE YOU ENJOYED! 😄
