TiZn16 is a titanium-zinc binary alloy combining titanium's lightweight and corrosion-resistant properties with zinc's strengthening and wear-resistant characteristics. This alloy family is investigated primarily in biomedical and aerospace research contexts, where the combination of reduced density and enhanced mechanical properties offers advantages over conventional titanium grades or zinc-heavy compositions. The material is valued for applications requiring a balance between strength, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility, though it remains less widely commercialized than established Ti-6Al-4V systems.
