Measurements of free surface velocity profiles of high-purity titanium samples under shock-wave loading were performed to study the dynamic strength and phase transition parameters. The peak pressure of the initial compression waves was within the range of 4 to 40 GPa, and the load duration was vaned between 10−8 and 10−6 s. An anomalous structure of shock waves was observed at pressures of ∼ 2.0 to 5.0 GPa due to the α-ω phase transition. The dynamic strength of pure titanium is lower than that of titanium alloys but exceeds the spall strength of commercial grade titanium.
