Titanium is very heavy in weight compare to other metal. And yes it is chemically reactive but challenging part is variation of chip thickness. Hence, I go with option C.

Titanium is highly chemically reactive and reacts with almost all tool materials. So its machining is generally done using water jet. That's why answer B is correct.

Machining operations of titanium alloys are considered to be difficult, due to its relatively high tensile strength, low ductile yield, Low tool-chip contact area.

Titanium can chemically bond with cutting tools, causing built up edges on the tool, decreasing the effectiveness of the tool. So option B is correct.

Devang said:   6 years ago
For better machinability of any material, low tool-chip contact area is better.

So, the correct answer is B.

Generally, titanium material having less thermal conductivity. Hence this material is difficult to cut.

Alif charniya said:   9 years ago
Titanium produces non-homogenous chips. That's the reason option C is correct.

Ritesh Singh said:   1 decade ago
Titanium is very reactive metal. So here option B should be correct.

Anurag said:   8 years ago
Titanium is high chemical reactivity. So the option B is correct.

Arunabh said:   9 years ago
Option B is correct. Reference - Kalpakijan and Schmidt.
