Classification of titanium wire
Titanium and titanium alloy according to the different properties, can be prepared for different requirements of the wire, generally divided into: Pure Titanium Wire, titanium alloy wire, pure titanium eyeglasses wire, titanium straight wire, titanium welding wire, titanium wire, titanium hanging tools, titanium coiled wire, titanium bright wire, titanium wire, titanium medical wire, titanium-nickel alloy wire, each of which has a different purpose. For example, pure titanium eyeglass wire is mainly used to make eyeglass holders, titanium hanging wire is used to hang weights, and titanium nickel alloy wire is commonly used as a memory alloy material. Titanium maerial and titanium alloy wire is generally hardened (Y)[i] and annealed (M)[ii], and the surface can be divided into two types: pickled[iii] surface and bright surface.
Therefore, titanium and titanium alloy wires are widely used in many fields such as aerospace, petrochemical, medical and health care, automotive, construction, as well as sports and leisure goods.
Applications of Titanium Wires
Titanium wires have perfectly inherited the advantages of titanium and titanium alloys, including good corrosion resistance, high specific strength, non-magnetic, high biocompatibility, low impedance to ultrasound and good shape memory.And in recent years, due to its continuous development, the varieties are becoming more and more numerous, which provides more choices in high-performance industrial supplies and consumer goods applications.
1, currently more than 80% of titanium and titanium alloy wire is used as welding wire, such as a variety of Titanium Equipment welding, welding pipe, aviation jet engine turbine disk and blade welding, magazine welding, etc.. 2, due to excellent corrosion resistance, titanium wire in the chemical, pharmaceutical, paper and other industries have been widely used, can be compiled into a mesh as seawater filters, pure water filters, chemical filters and so on.
3, titanium and titanium alloy wire due to its good overall performance, but also be used to manufacture fasteners, load-bearing components, springs and so on.
4, medical and health industry, due to its excellent biocompatibility, titanium and titanium alloy wire is used to manufacture medical equipment, implanted in the human body, dental crowns fixed, skull fixed.
5, certain titanium alloy wire with shape memory function, such as titanium-nickel alloy wire, is used to manufacture satellite dishes, clothing shoulder pads, women's bras, eyeglass frames and so on.
6, in the electroplating and water treatment industry, titanium and titanium alloy wire is used to manufacture a variety of electrodes.
With the development of the national economy, the demand for titanium and titanium alloy wire is growing, and is currently in a state of oversupply, the development potential is very large.
