Titanium will burn if it is heated to a high enough temperature in air, You need a higher temperature than a match or candle flame, it also helps of the surface area to volume ratio is high, e.g. if you are setting fire to thin strips or swarf. The Oxygen and Nitrogen will then react with the Titanium which leaves behind a very hard Titanium Nitride or Titanium Oxide. It is difficult to extingush Titanium which is already on fire, CO2, water and foam will only feed it with more oxygen. It also burns with a very high temperature (sometimes it is used in fireworks). To melt titanium, you have to put it into a chamber where you can extract all of the Nitrogen and Oxygen (often back filling with some non-reactive Argon gas).

∙ 10y agoMost things burn in Oxygen gas. Titanium burns in Nitrogen gas. Then, it is extinguishable. However, when Titanium is burned it is VERY hard to be extinguished. Water and fire extinguishers only feed the fire more oxygen. This makes it more hard to put it.

Is titanium an example of a semiconductor?
Titanium is used in steel as an alloying element (ferro-titanium) to reduce grain size and as a deoxidizer, and in stainless steel to reduce carbon content.Titanium is often alloyed with aluminium (to refine grain size), vanadium, copper (to harden), iron, manganese, molybdenum, and with other metals; Applications for titanium mill products (sheet, plate, bar, wire, forgings, castings) can be found in industrial, aerospace, recreational, and emerging markets. Powdered titanium is used in pyrotechnics as a source of bright-burning particles.
