I've seen the ads, but what is "liquid titanium"? The ads tell you what titanium metal is, but not the additive?
Titanium alkoxide.
Well, you asked...
METHOD FOR MAKING A TITANIUM-CONTAINING LUBRICANT ADDITIVE
AFTON CHEMICAL CORPORATION (Richmond, VA, US) - linked
United States Patent Application 20090318318
Abstract:
"A method for making a titanium-containing lubricant additive, a lubricant additive concentrate made by the method and a lubricating composition containing the additive concentrate. The method includes reacting titanium alkoxide with water in a reaction medium that includes a dispersant to provide a homogeneous titanium-containing additive product. The additive product made by the method is substantially devoid of acidic components."

BTW, Sometime soon I'll be changing the oil in my 451-stroker and it won't be with titanium-containing additives. For now, I'll stick with conventional anti-wear additives, e.g. ZDDP.
