State Titanium Research and Design Institute of Ukraine

Introduction

The State Titanium Research and Design Institute of Ucraine was founded in 1956 as a designer of non-ferrous metallurgy works in former USSR. In 1965, the Titanium Institute became a specialized head institute of the titanium industry in the Soviet Union. Since 1976, it became a leader in the field of magnesium production and a general designer of all titanium-and-magnesium works. Since 1992, the Titanium Institute is a head institute and a general designer of non-ferrous metallurgy works, production of semiconductor and carbon-graphite materials in Ukraine.

Institute consists of the following divisions

Research and development division .
Design division.
Laboratories.
Pilot plant.

The Titanium Institute is staffed with highly skilled researchers and designers. Their large-scaled developments are widely used and generally recognized in Ucraine and abroad.
