A New Trend in Titanium Surface Treatment: Creating A New Vision Of Colorful Architecture

In the field of architecture, the application of titanium is becoming more and more extensive, from the initial roof and curtain wall, to today's walls, decorations and even sculptures, titanium with its unique corrosion resistance can bring a new solution for the building. However, with the progress of the times and the improvement of people's aesthetic level, the reflective and decorative properties of the surface of titanium building materials have also become the focus of attention.
In the early stage of the application of titanium as a building material, people mainly focus on its corrosion resistance, for its surface treatment did not pay too much attention. But with the passage of time, people began to realize that through appropriate surface treatment, not only can reduce the reflectivity of the surface of titanium building materials, to prevent blinding, but also to enhance its decorative effect, so that it can be better integrated into the modern architectural style.

At present, a variety of processes have been developed for the surface treatment of titanium building materials. In order to reduce the reflectivity of the surface of titanium building materials, to prevent blinding, people will be titanium surface processing into a micro-convex shape, the main use of the following kinds of surface treatment process:
1, optical rectification rolling method
In the last process of titanium rolling, the surface of titanium is processed into a concave-convex shape with a concave-convex rough surface roll, so that the treated surface has a glossy feeling and reduces reflectivity.
2,Acid washing method
Acid washing is one of the main means of brightening the surface of titanium and its alloys for building materials, the use of different ratios of nitric acid and hydrofluoric acid, so that the titanium surface dissolution chipping, presenting a relatively white color tone.
3,Composite method
The use of "light rolling + pickling" composite treatment process, so that the surface of titanium in white with the inherent metallic color of titanium, in recent years, the large-scale buildings more than the use of this process.
4,Sandblasting method
With the aid of high-speed sand flow impact titanium surface, sandblasting, so that the formation of the surface was very fine bump, low gloss, gray tone.
5,Anodic oxidation coloring
In order to make the building show a splash of color, it is necessary to anodic oxidation coloring treatment of titanium surface. This surface color control is the use of anodic oxidation device, through the DC or AC power, based on the voltage increases, so that the titanium surface in turn, gold, red purple, green purple, yellow, purple, cyan, green, yellow green, so that the whole building is more eye-catching, creative.
It is worth mentioning that although the application of titanium in China's construction industry is still in the development stage, but China has a long coastline and vast seaside city area, which provides a huge potential for the construction of titanium. With the continuous progress of technology and the growth of market demand, it is believed that the application of titanium in the field of construction will become more and more extensive, injecting new vitality into the development of China's construction industry.
In the future, with the continuous innovation and improvement of the surface treatment process of titanium, we have reason to believe that titanium building materials will become an indispensable part of the modern construction field with its unique charm and advantages, creating a more beautiful, durable and environmentally friendly building environment for people.
