The aviation titanium alloy market is anticipated to flourish at an average CAGR of 6.9% between 2023 and 2033. The market is expected to hold a market share of USD 8.01 billion by 2033 while the market is likely to reach a value of USD 4.11 billion in 2023.
The experimentation with titanium along with the multiple benefits delivered by the addition of titanium in any heavy-weight structure is flourishing the market growth. Furthermore, it also carries properties such as resistance to corrosion, higher strength, non-toxic to humans, minimal thermal expansion, high melting point, and extraordinary fabrication possibilities.
The market makes its space due to the multiple uses of titanium in the aviation sector. From manufacturing to the final touches, titanium is used to build different parts of the airplane. These parts involve airframes, engines, and some landing gear. Though, different kind of material is used in manufacturing these parts such as commercially pure titanium, and Ti-6AI-4V alloy.
These different grades of titanium make it up to the top and become an easy replacement for steel. Titanium is majorly used in places where heavy weight creates strain and other stuff.
Alongside this, the aviation industry is trying its best to cut unnecessary cost, and hence titanium with longer shelf life, reducing the airframe maintenance cost effectively along. The metal research and development over its implementation, application, another properties are also helping the market players produce different grades of titanium.
The lighter the weight, the more fuel can be saved and hence modern-day aircraft such as Boeing 787 Dreamliner, Airbus A350 are using titanium during manufacturing. The benefits such as advanced technological integration, improved fuel efficiency, and enhanced passenger comfort are propelling the market growth.
