Bureau of Mines Collection - C-564-BC Titanium Research Building ["This section houses the Titanium Research Section, which conducts investigations directed toward the development of improvements in the Kroll process, now in general use for the production of titanium, and also towards the development of new and cheaper methods of production. Titanium, a grey-colored metal with a density intermediate between that of aluminum and iron, promises to become very useful in the fields in which either a high strength-weight ratio for service in the range 400*-800* F. or a high-resistance to atmospheric corrosion, particularly to exposure near or in the ocean, is required."] [duplicate of 0022:0103b and 0208]
