Titanium alloy materials in chemical industry, metallurgy, electric power and other civil industry is also more and more attention. In the process of petroleum processing, processing equipment should often contact with high temperature, high pressure, corrosive media, and traditional materials often occur safety accidents during service. In order to solve these problems, titanium alloy is gradually used as a material for manufacturing industrial equipment at home and abroad. The titanium equipment is used in the condenser of coastal power station, which effectively solves the problem of air leakage caused by corrosion of stainless steel and copper alloy. The use of titanium equipment in oil refinery can effectively reduce the huge economic loss caused by sulfide corrosion. In addition, titanium alloys are increasingly used in the production of acids, bases, fertilizers, pesticides. The wide application of titanium alloy has promoted the development of industry to a certain extent.

Application of titanium alloy materials in medical field

Titanium, with low density, good corrosion resistance and non-toxicity, is an important material for making medical devices. Titanium is used in the medical field, mainly as body implants, surgical instruments. Among the metal materials that are often made into human bones and joints for the repair of human hard tissues, the elastic modulus of titanium is the closest to that of human body, about 80-110GPa. Such an elastic modulus can alleviate the mechanical incompatibility between metal implants and bone tissues. Titanium has a low thermal conductivity, only 1/17 of that of gold alloy, which can effectively protect the pulp and avoid hot and cold stimulation when making dentures. The benefits of titanium in surgical instruments include weight reduction, corrosion resistance, and non-toxicity.

The above is a summary of the application of titanium alloy in the civil industry and medical field. If you have more understanding of the application of titanium alloy, welcome to contact us.
