Titanium alloys testing according to ASTM E2371
Would you like to carry out a testing of titanium alloys according to ASTM E2371?
ASTM E2371 specifies the standard test method for the titanium testing and titanium alloys testing by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry.
Check the composition of your alloys and secure your applications
In many industrial sectors, titanium alloys are used for their mechanical performance, their corrosion resistance and their light weight.
But these properties only deliver their full value if their chemical composition is perfectly controlled.
The ASTM E2371 standard governs the determination of the chemical elements present in titanium alloys. It makes it possible to verify material compliance, identify process drift, or investigate a nonconformity.
When carry out a titanium testing according to ASTM E2371?
As part of quality control, regulatory compliance, or following a product failure, you need to determine the composition of titanium alloys according to ASTM E2371.

It enables the precise determination of a titanium alloy’s chemical composition to verify its compliance with a grade or specification.
This analysis is essential for securing 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), which strongly influence mechanical properties
Each element can affect mechanical strength, fatigue resistance, or corrosion resistance.
Major elements are present at 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 in-service performance.
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
Fusion analysis (O/N/H): for oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen
The choice depends on the required level of precision and the industrial context.
