Mendeleyev, the great Russian scientist, was the first chemist who showed elements arranged according to a definite system. Mendeleyev’s system is called the Periodic Law. The Periodic Law as stated by Mendeleyev is of great importance for science. It allowed to put into one orderly table almost all known chemical elements and enabled Mendeleyev to makes several bold suppositions, proved later by experiments. The Russian chemist was obliged to leave several blanks in order to put elements of similar properties in the same group. These blanks stood for undiscovered elements. Mendeleyev predicted not only the existence of these elements but their physical and chemical properties as well; He predicted the properties of what he called eko-aluminium, which, when finally discovered was called gallium. Titanium, discovered 40 years after Mendeleyev's death, found its place in the great scientist's periodic table. The first amount of titanium produced, when examined indicated that the metal had promising properties.
There are large deposits of titanium located all over the world. "Ilmenite" is the name given to titanium, for the Ilmen mountains in the Urals are very rich in this metal. Engineers find wide use for this high-strength metal and prefer it to aluminum which loses its strength rapidly when subjected to high temperatures. Titanium is one of the most useful structural materials applied for making ships, airplanes, cars, etc.
