What is the metal titanium powder and titanium sponge powder what is the difference

Method the sponge metal titanium produced metal thermal reduction. % purity (quality) is generally 99.1 ~ 99.7. Impurity elements% (quality) a total of 0.3 ~ 0.9, impurity elements oxygen% (mass) of 0.06 ~ 0.20, hardness (HB) ranged from 100 to 157, according to the different purity of WHTiO to MHTi4 five grades. As the main raw material for the preparation of industrial Titanium alloy valve. Sponge titanium production is the basic link of titanium industry, it is titanium, titanium powder and other raw materials of titanium component. The ilmenite becomes four titanium chloride, then put in a sealed stainless steel tank, filled with argon, making them react with the magnesium metal, get "titanium sponge". The porous, "sponge titanium" is not used directly, also must put them in an electric furnace melting into a liquid, in order to cast titanium ingot.
