Abstract
A method for producing titanium alloy by the reduction of titanium tetrachloride and alloy components with a reducing metal agent, capable of continuously producing titanium alloy on an industrial scale. The temperature and pressure of the reaction zone for the reduction are kept above a melting point of the titanium alloy and above the vapor pressure of the reducing metal agent at that temperature respectively, so that the reducing metal agent and its chloride may be kept in a molten state but without boiling.
