Analysis of titanium alloys according to ASTM E2371
You wish to carry out an analysis of titanium alloys according to the ASTM E2371 standard
ASTM E2371 specifies the standard test method for the analysis of titanium and titanium alloys by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry.
Control the composition of your alloys and secure your applications
In many industrial sectors, titanium alloys are used for their mechanical performance, corrosion resistance, and light weight.
However, these properties are only valid if their chemical composition is perfectly controlled.
The ASTM E2371 standard governs the determination of the chemical elements present in titanium alloys. It allows for verification of material conformity, identification of process deviations, and investigation of non-conformities.
In what context should an analysis be performed according to the ASTM E2371 standard?
For quality control, regulatory compliance or following a product failure, you need to determine the composition of titanium alloys according to the ASTM E2371 standard.

It allows for the precise determination of the chemical composition of a titanium alloy in order to verify its conformity to a grade or specification.
This analysis is essential for ensuring the safety of critical applications in aerospace, medical, energy, and defense.
The standard covers:
- Major alloying elements (Al, V, Mo, Nb, Sn, Zr, Fe…)
- Trace and residual elements (Ni, Co, Si, Cu, Mn…)
- Interstitial elements (O, N, H) that strongly influence mechanical properties
Each element can impact mechanical strength, fatigue resistance, or corrosion.
Major elements are present in high concentrations and define the alloy grade (e.g., Ti-6Al-4V). Trace elements are present in very small quantities but can cause defects or impair performance in service.
To meet the requirements of the standard:
- ICP-OES: suitable for major elements and intermediate concentrations
- ICP-MS: ideal for trace elements at very low concentrations
- Melting analysis (O/N/H): for oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen
The choice depends on the required level of precision and the industrial context.
- Supplier material conformity check
- New supplier qualification
- Batch validation before production
- Investigation after breakage or mechanical defect
- Quality audit or regulatory requirement
