Who has the patent on titanium?

It's extremely doubtful that anyone has. Titanium is a natural element (symbol Ti, and atomic number 22) listed in the periodic table! Patent law typically applies to man-made (i.e., non-natural) materials, items (products and designs), processes, and similar use of materials and ideas. For example, there are records of patents for certain smelting processes used in steel manufacture, but there would not be patents for the individual natural ores and metals used in steel-making. The patent laws are primarily intended to protect ownership rights, manufacture, and rights to sale of derived products.
