The melting point of titatium is 3,034°F, or if you prefer metric, 1,668°C.
The basters we have access to shoot bolts of plasma. And the temperature of the plasma is dependent on the type of gas used in the ammunitions cartridges.
The bolts melted the metal shieldings of the basic droids in one blast and they were defintily not made of titanium. But it took multiple blasts to take out the higher quality of droids, and only scorched the casings of the tanks and they were made of... what was the word, I know it, bronzium. So clearly the blasters have a max temperature blow the melting point of bronzium shieldings.
I guess we could analyze the gas from one of the ammunition cartridge to assertain the exact temperature of the plasma...
But I think it might be easier to just buy some titanium plating and test the blasters against it than take an unknown substance to a lab to analyze. There would be questions.
Could also figure out the melting point of bronzium and compare it to titanium...
