With the change of concept and the continuous improvement of pursuit, people are constantly seeking new items and materials to decorate their lives. At this time, titanium metal is quietly entering; the former "space materials", "space metals" and "biophilic metals"just in line with people's inner needs, titanium has been widely used in the medical field as a metal that can be implanted in the human body for a long time.
Titanium (Ti) —silver-gray metal with a specific gravity of 4.5g/cubic centimeter and a melting point of 1668°C. The purity of pure titanium is between 99.75 and 99.99%, and it maintains its own color tone for life at room temperature. The melting point of titanium is similar to that of platinum. Titanium rings have been popular in Europe and the United States for more than ten years. Because of the shiny texture of titanium, lightness, never fading, never deformation, and no allergic effect to any skin, it is deeply loved by people in Europe and America. It is only popular in China in recent years. The simple style of titanium rings is especially popular among young people.

▲Features of Titanium Rings
Titanium is gradually applied to the jewelry industry, which is inseparable from the advantages of its own metal elements. It is neither as common as gold and silver, nor as expensive as platinum, and its characteristics are obvious and very competitive.
1. Titanium rings have good corrosion resistance: Titanium is a very active element, and it is very easy to react with oxygen to generate Tio2, but the oxide film of several to tens of nanometers generated on the surface of titanium is extremely complete and dense, and has local damage. Instant self-healing ability, and stable in most environments, this is the theoretical basis of titanium's corrosion resistance. The advantages it reflects on the ring are that it does not corrode, does not discolor, maintains a good luster for a long time, and is not afraid of water.
2. Titanium can be colored: Titanium metal has a very interesting feature. When titanium is placed in the electrolyte and a certain current is applied, its surface should be electrolyzed with an oxide film, and the thickness of the oxide film can determine the color changing without additional elements. Now the colors that can be made are gold, black, blue, brown, colorful and other colors. This feature of it makes the ring style more colorful and fashionable.
3. Titanium rings are not easy to deform and do not need to be reshaped: titanium has high hardness and is not easy to deform, unlike ordinary gold and silver jewelry that needs to be reshaped after wearing for a period of time.
▲What is the effect of titanium rings
You can find out that titanium has a "biophilic" property by looking up the relevant information. In the human body, it can resist the corrosion of secretions and is non-toxic, and is suitable for any sterilization method. Therefore, it is widely used in the manufacture of medical devices, artificial hip joints, knee joints, shoulder joints, flank joints, skulls, active heart valves, and bone fixation clips. When new muscle fibrous rings are wrapped around these "titanium bones", these titanium bones begin to maintain the normal activities of the human body.
Titanium is widely distributed in the human body, and the content of normal human body is not more than 15mg per 70kg body weight, and its role is not yet clear. But titanium can stimulate phagocytic cells and enhance immunity. This effect has been confirmed.
Titanium has stable chemical properties, has the effect of stabilizing current, and can relieve muscle tension. It is a favorite product material for professional athletes. In summary, titanium rings can promote human health and are very suitable for wearing.
▲How to identify true and false titanium rings
1. Look at the weight: pure titanium is a lightweight precious metal. The weight of titanium is half of the same volume of steel, less than half of that of silver, and it feels very light.
2. Magnetism: pure titanium has no magnetism, and what is magnetic must not be pure titanium.
3. The most effective manual detection method: scratching ceramic utensils with products will leave deep black marks. If not, it is not a genuine titanium ring.
