AN ANALYSIS OF DEVELOPING STRATEGIES AND MEASURES OF TITANIUM BASED MATERIALS IN THE HIGH-TECHNOLOGY ERA
高技术时代的钛合金材料技术发展战略及对策剖析

The attractiveness of the science and technology of titanium based materials makes them an important and fundamental levering factor in the high-technology era. Competition in the technology of titanium based materials has become increasingly severe with the worldwide high-technology development. This paper analyses the developing strategies and measures adopted to develop titanium based materials by the United States, Japan and Western Europe, and summarizes their successful experiences and lessons to be 1earned. On the basis of this analysis and by taking into account the status quo of China, the strategic goals and appropriate measures for the development of titanium science and technol0gy in China are proposed within the framework of the general strategies of "strengthening by science and education" and "rapid modernization". It is suggested that the traditional titanium based industries should be innovated along with the development of an independent and self sustaining industry of high-technology titanium based materials. The measures that should be adopted to realize these goals are discussed in detail.
