1.世界钛市场的前景 世界钛装船量列入表1。从表中可知,1997年的记录为60×10~3Mt(公吨),随后在1998年稍有下降为57×10~3Mt,而到1999年突然下降低到5×10~3Mt。在新的千年里期望与1999年有相似的水平,装船量的这种下降几乎完全是由于北美销售下降,特别是商业飞机制造的下降。钛轧制品装船量 1. World titanium market prospects World titanium shipments are listed in Table 1. As can be seen from the table, the record for 1997 was 60 × 10-3 Mt (metric tons), then slightly decreased to 57 × 10-3 Mt in 1998, but suddenly dropped to 5 × 10-3 Mt in 1999. Expectations for the new millennium are similar to those of 1999, and the decline in shipments was almost entirely due to a drop in sales in North America, particularly commercial aircraft.
