Titanium has high strength and density and small, good mechanical
properties, good toughness and corrosion resistance. In addition , poor
process performance titanium alloys , machining difficulties in thermal
processing , and very easy to absorb hydrogen nitrogen carbon and other
impurities. There are poor abrasion resistance , complex production
process . Titanium industrial production began in 1948 . Requires the
development of sunrui titanium pump the aviation industry , the titanium industry with an
average annual growth rate of about 8% growth. Currently the world's
titanium alloy production reached 40,000 tons , nearly 30 kinds of
titanium alloys . Is the most widely used titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V
(TC4), Ti-5Al-2.5Sn (TA7) and commercially pure titanium (TA1, TA2 and
TA3).
Titanium is mainly used for the production of aircraft
engine compressor components , followed by structure rockets, missiles
and high-speed aircraft. Mid-1960s , titanium and its alloys have been
in general industrial applications , electrodes for electrolysis
industry production , power plant condensers , oil refineries and
desalination heater and environmental pollution control devices.
Titanium and its alloys have become a corrosion resistant structural
materials. In addition, for the production of hydrogen storage materials
and shape memory alloys.
China began in 1956, titanium and
titanium alloys research ; mid-1960s and the development of industrial
production of titanium into TB2 alloys.
Titanium is a new and
important structural materials used in the aerospace industry , the
proportion between the aluminum and steel , strength and temperature
ranged , but has high strength and excellent resistance than seawater
corrosion and ultra- low temperature performance. In 1950 the United
States for the first time in the F-84 sunrui Titanium precision castings fighter-bombers used after the
fuselage insulation panels, wind shield , tail cover other non-
load-bearing components. 1960s began using parts from titanium alloy
fuselage toward the rear of the fuselage , in part, to replace
structural steel bulkheads , beams, rails and other important flap
bearing components . The amount of titanium in military aircraft is
increasing rapidly , reaching 20 % to 25% by weight of the aircraft
structure . Since the 1970s , began extensive use of titanium civilian
aircraft such as the Boeing 747 aircraft with a capacity of 3640 kg or
more of titanium . Aircraft Mach number of less than 2.5 primarily to
replace the titanium steel , to reduce structural weight . Again , the
U.S. SR-71 high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft speed ( Mach 3 at an
altitude of 26,212 meters ) , 93% titanium by weight of the aircraft
structure , known as " all-titanium " aircraft . When the weight ratio
of aircraft engines, increased from 4-6 to 8-10 , a corresponding outlet
temperature from compressor 200 ~ 300 ° C to 500 ~ 600 ° C , the
original plate is made of aluminum and the blades of the low pressure
compressor must switch to titanium , or titanium instead of stainless
steel plate and high-pressure compressor blades in order to reduce the
structural weight . 1970s, the amount of titanium in the general
aviation engines accounted for 20% to 30% of the total weight of the
structure is mainly used in the manufacture of compressor components
such as forged titanium fan, compressor discs and blades, cast titanium
compressor casing , intermediate casing, bearing housing and so on. The
main advantage of the spacecraft 's high- strength titanium alloy ,
corrosion Sunrui titanium material resistance and low temperature performance to manufacture all
kinds of pressure vessels, fuel tanks , fasteners, instrument straps,
architecture and rocket shells. Sputnik , the lunar module , manned
spaceship and space shuttles are also using titanium plates welded .
