Preliminary measurements of the corrosion of titanium were made in 13M HNO/sub 3/ -0.05M fluoride using O.1M H/sub 3/BO/sub 3/ as a liquid and vapor- phase complexing agent. Titanium Ax-55 was attacked at average rates of 0.58 and 0.33 mil/ month in the liquid and vapor. In dissolver solutions containing 0.5 and 1.0M titanium, all rates were less than 0.1 mil/month.
