Application Of Titanium in Domestic Industry

Titanium metal in most aqueous solutions, can be generated on the surface of the passivation oxide film. Therefore, titanium in acidic, alkaline, neutral saline solution and oxidizing medium has good stability, than the existing stainless steel and other non-ferrous metals have good corrosion resistance, and even comparable to platinum. Titanium good corrosion resistance and stability, determines the titanium material in the industry in a wide range of applications, today to introduce the specific application of titanium industry.

1, chemical industry

Titanium is an excellent corrosion-resistant material in the chemical industry, has been more and more widely used. For example, in the chlor-alkali industry, the use of titanium metal anode and titanium system wet chlorine cooler, received very good economic results, known as the revolution in the chlor-alkali industry.

2,Petroleum industry

Titanium in organic compounds, has a very good stability. Therefore, titanium is an excellent structural material in petroleum refining and petrochemical industry, and can be used to make a variety of heat exchangers, reactors, high-pressure containers and distillation towers.

3,Metallurgical industry

Titanium is an active metal, has good gas absorption properties, is an excellent paint stripper in the steel industry, it can be synthesized steel in the cooling of the precipitation of oxygen and nitrogen. Add a small amount of titanium in steel can make steel tough and elastic. Titanium is an important alloy additive in steelmaking and aluminum industry. Titanium in the hydrometallurgical industry, such as copper, nickel and cobalt, manganese and other non-ferrous metals in the electrolytic production, has a very wide range of applications.

4,Fertilizer industry

Urea is a very important fertilizer, in the production process at high temperatures and high pressures under very strong corrosive conditions, the use of titanium instead of stainless steel after the equipment life greatly increased, maintenance time is greatly reduced. Therefore, the main equipment in the current production of urea are using titanium.

5, desalination and shipbuilding industry

Titanium seawater and marine air corrosion resistance is very strong, and the strength of a large, light weight, is the ideal structural material for the shipbuilding industry, has been widely used in a variety of ships in many parts.
6,Electric power industry

Titanium in containing chlorine compounds, sulfides and many other corrosive hot water has a good stability, so titanium has been used in a large number of thermal power plants as a heat exchanger cooling tube, greatly reducing the maintenance time, the economic effect is very significant.

7, paper and textile industry

Titanium bleach on chlorine dioxide, chlorite, chlorite and other bleaching agents have special anti-corrosion properties. Therefore, titanium in the textile printing and dyeing industry, paper industry bleaching equipment has an important application.

8, medical and other aspects

Titanium biophilicity is good, harmless to the human body. Therefore, it can be widely used in the medical and pharmaceutical industries and other sectors. Titanium has good suction properties, but also in electronic vacuum technology and high vacuum technology has a wide range of applications.
