Correct answer: A. Under vacuum in argon atmosphere

  • A. Under vacuum in argon atmosphere
  • B. Under air pressure in nitrogen atmosphere
  • C. In specially fabricated aluminium vanadium
  • D. Using CAD-CAM technique

Titanium reacts readily with oxygen and nitrogen at casting temperatures, so it is melted and cast under vacuum or an inert argon atmosphere. Ordinary air casting would cause contamination and poor properties.
