What Is The Purpose Of Titanium Rods

First of all, the advantages of titanium rods are more, not only high strength, low density, but also good mechanical functions, resistance and corrosion resistance. So what are the uses of titanium rods? Let me introduce it to you.

The industrial production of titanium began in 1948. The demand for the development of the aviation industry has caused the titanium industry to develop at an average annual growth rate of about 8%. The current international annual output of titanium alloy processing materials has reached more than 40,000 tons, and there are nearly 30 titanium alloy trademarks. The most widely used titanium alloys are Ti-6Al-4V (TC4), Ti-5Al-2.5Sn (TA7) and industrial pure titanium (TA1, TA2 and TA3). Titanium alloys are mainly used for the production of aircraft engine compressor components, followed by the layout of rockets, missiles and high-speed aircraft. In the mid-1960s, titanium and its alloys were used in general industry, used to make electrodes in the electrolysis industry, condensers in power stations, heaters for petroleum extraction and desalination, and environmental pollution control equipment. Titanium and its alloys have become a kind of corrosion-resistant layout materials.

In addition, it is also used to produce hydrogen storage materials and shape memory alloys. Titanium alloy is a new important layout material used in the aerospace industry. Its specific gravity, strength and operating temperature are between aluminum and steel, but it has high specific strength and excellent seawater corrosion resistance and ultra-low temperature function. The amount of titanium alloy in aero engines usually accounts for 20% to 30% of the total weight of the layout. It is mainly used to make compressor parts, such as cast titanium fans, compressor disks and blades, cast titanium compressor casings, intermediate casings, Bearing housing, etc. The spacecraft mainly uses the high specific strength, corrosion resistance and low temperature resistance of titanium alloys to make various pressure vessels, fuel tanks, fasteners, instrument straps, structures and rocket shells. Artificial earth satellites, lunar modules, manned spacecraft and space shuttles also use titanium alloy sheet welding.
