Ferro Titanium is used by stainless steel makers as a stabilizer to prevent chromium carbide forming at grain boundaries and in the production of low carbon steels for sheet production. Ferro Titanium is also used in foundries for addition of titanium to the molten metal imparting excellent strength to it without altering other ratios.Various titanium bearing materials are employed in making Ferro Titanium. Major sources include titanium scrap, titanium sponge, ilmenite, leucoxene, rutile. These materials are either reduced by aluminothermic means or melted in induction furnace with iron to produce ferro titanium of various grades and specifications. Various grades are manufactured, the most common being 20-25% Ti for foundries, 35-40% Ti for welding, 70% Ti for stainless steel production.
