Hi, Younas. It is not possible to electroplate titanium. You need to look at PVD processes for depositing titanium compounds. Why room temperature?

What is the thickness of the coating you need? Cathodic arc PVD process gives good adhesion at low temperatures (< 200 °C). Are you sure you need only titanium coating and not titanium nitride?
