Abstract
The impact of changes in the dynamics of the markets of additive technologies (3D printing) and the aerospace industry on the growth of the titanium market and its alloys has been studied, considering the scenario approach in conditions of economic instability. The data for 10 years of global demand for titanium and its alloys have been analyzed. Possible applications of titanium alloys in various industries have been considered. The analysis of the industry’s impact on achieving sustainable development goals in the context of stricter environmental regulations has been carried out. A step-by-step modeling plan has been presented for estimating the growth rate of the titanium market depending on the aerospace and additive technologies industries development.
Using a scenario approach, the dynamics of key consumer industries of titanium and its alloys has been analyzed, and the demand for the metal for each scenario has been calculated. The study results have shown that by 2050, the accelerated implementation of additive technologies and the growth of the aerospace sector will have a significant impact on the titanium market, while traditional sectors (chemical industry, energy) will maintain stable demand.
The increased use of titanium creates opportunities for exporting countries, including Russia, to increase supplies and develop deep processing of raw materials. The prerequisites for further development of the proposed toolkit using alternative and sophisticated models to assess the growth rate of the titanium market have been given.
