18. Read I) English and then II) Russian texts about Titanium. Rewrite from the English version the sentences, which mean exactly the same as in the Russian version. Summarize both texts.

I) Titanium used to be discovered in England by William Gregor (an English clergyman and mineralogist) in 1791. Titanium is lightweight, strong, corrosion resistant and abundant in nature. Titanium and its alloys possess tensile strengths from 30,000 psi to 200,000 psi (210-1380 MPa), which are equivalent to those strengths found in most of alloy steels. The density of titanium is only 56 percent that of steel, and its corrosion resistance compares well with that of platinum. Titanium has a high melting point of 3135°F (1725°C). This melting point is approximately 400°F (220°C) above the melting point of steel and approximately 2000°F (1100°C) above that of aluminum. Titanium is as strong as steel, but 45% lighter.Titanium can be alloyed with other elements such as iron, aluminum, vanadium, molybdenum and others, to produce strong lightweight alloys for aerospace, military, industrial process, desalination plants, automotive, medical, sporting goods, and other applications. Because of TiN's metallic gold color, it is used to coat costume jewelry and automotive trim for decorative purposes. TiN is also widely used as a top-layer coating, usually with nickel (Ni) or chromium (Cr) plated substrates, on consumer plumbing fixtures and door hardware. TiN is non-toxic. The most common methods of TiN thin film creation are physical vapor deposition (PVD, usually reactive sputtering or electron beam heating) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD). In both methods, pure titanium is sublimated and reacted with nitrogen in a high-energy, vacuum environment. PVD is preferred for steel parts.

II) Титан в виде оксида был открыт английским любителем-минералогом У. Грегором в 1791 году. В высоковакуумной технике широко применяется титан и его сплавы, которые имеют высокие прочность, плотность, жаропрочность и коррозийную стойкость при температурах до 500°C. При более высокой температуре титан
и его сплавы легко окисляются и поглощают водород, который
вызывает охрупчивание (embrittlement). Технический титан хорошо обрабатывается давлением, сваривается в среде аргона, но плохо обрабатывается резанием. Для получения сплавов титан легируют алюминием, молибденом, ванадием, марганцем, хромом, оловом. Титан – очень твердый металл: он в 12 раз тверже алюминия, в 4 раза – железа и меди. Чем выше предел текучести металла, тем лучше детали из него сопротивляются эксплуатационным нагрузкам, тем дольше они сохраняют свои формы и размеры. Предел текучести титана в 18 раз выше, чем у алюминия, и в 2,5 раза, чем у железа. Широкое применение получил титан при производстве твердых сплавов для режущих инструментов. Тончайшее покрытие из карбида титана значительно повышает режущие свойства инструмента, улучшает качество поверхности обработанных изделий. Превосходные хирургические инструменты изготавливаются из сплавов титана. Оксидная пленка не защищает титан в жидком состоянии от дальнейшего взаимодействия с кислородом (в отличие, например, от алюминия), и поэтому его плавка и сварка должны проводиться в вакууме. Использование титана дает во многих случаях большой технико-экономический эффект.
