Toxicity of titanium alloy

17 July 2014 - 11:38 PM

In my line of work, fire spinning,  we use titanium alloy (with aluminum and vanadium) on a kevlar wick fueled with Coleman camp fuel to add a sparkling effect to the flame. We have recently had inquiries regarding the safety of inhalation of titanium alloy fumes. While I realize that toxic fumes may be produced, does anyone have any input about the level of danger created by burning approximately .3 oz of titanium alloy over a 5 minute period in a ventilated area? Thanks!
