Just learned about the titanium sponge market for aerospace & defense, the US is really working to produce more at home to avoid relying too much on China & Russia. Companies like Timet are building new plants, and countries like Saudi Arabia and India are stepping up as new suppliers.
Titanium sponge might sound boring, but it’s actually the raw stuff that makes aircraft & military parts lightweight and super strong. With all the new jets and defense upgrades coming, making sure there’s enough supply is becoming a huge deal.
What I find really cool is how geopolitics and tech innovation (like recycling scrap and 3D printing parts) are shaping the market. It’s not just about making a lot of titanium, but what really counts is purity and a reliable supply chain.
