Yes, Titanium is nonferrous. The word "ferrous" comes from the latin "Ferrum", which in turn lent its name to the Periodic Table abbreviation for Iron (Fe). The meaning of the word is: "of, relating to or containing Iron" or "Being or containing divalent Iron." Titanium (Ti), like Iron is an element. As such it cannot contain another element within itself. Like most metals, though, the two can be alloyed together (although there is little point) to form a compound. This new compound would be called Titanium Ferrite.
