Finishing of different plastic processing techniques for titanium

After the titanium is plastically processed, a series of post-processing operations are carried out to meet the user's final requirements for the surface quality, size, shape and certain properties of the titanium material, collectively referred to as finishing. In other words, the overall process of post-processing is finishing.

It can be seen from the process flow of titanium processing that different plastic processing processes require different finishing processes for titanium materials; different types of titanium materials have different finishing processes after processing. In practice, the finishing of the process can only be designed according to actual needs.

However, in general, the finishing house includes processes such as heat treatment, surface purification, cutting, straightening, surface treatment, inspection, marking, and packaging. For wire and strip, it should also include coiling and uncoiling shear. In order to expand the product variety, the surface treatment of the product can also be included in the finishing range. The above process is briefly introduced below:

(1) Heat treatment. In order to improve the microstructure, residual stress state and mechanical properties of titanium materials, heating, cooling and heat preservation procedures. There are a variety of heat treatment methods, which are carried out according to the needs of general technical users.

(2) Surface purification. Titanium materials after plastic processing are often accompanied by oil, and some are coated with oxide scale, which must be degreasing and deoxidizing. These oxide scales are firmly attached to the outer surface of the drink materials, and it is often necessary to take different methods to remove them according to different thicknesses of the oxide scales. Sometimes it is often necessary to use alkaline washing and acid washing to achieve the purpose of surface purification.

(3) Cut off. After the titanium is plastic processed, it is cut according to the size requirements of the special product. At this time, the two ends or irregular parts of the product can be removed to obtain the required size. When the local defect of titanium material is serious and cannot be repaired, the defect part should also be removed. Plates and strips are usually cut with a shearing machine, and pipes are cut with a sawing machine.

(4) Straightening. The process of correcting shape defects after titanium plastic processing. Shape defects such as the floating of the titanium plate, the bending or twisting of the titanium tube, etc., all need to be corrected to make it into a straight and neat qualified product.

(5) Surface treatment. Because titanium is sensitive to notches, surface defects such as cracks and gettering layers during the production process should be cleaned up in time by grinding and other methods to prevent further deepening during the deformation process. At the same time, in order to make the titanium surface color, oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, wear-resistance and surface activity improvement, sometimes surface treatment is required.

(6) Coiling. It is a process in which the button belt and titanium wire are rolled into a roll. To facilitate storage and transportation, the products are supplied in rolls. The coiling is carried out on the coiler.

(7) Uncoiling and cutting. The process of unrolling the rolled titanium wire or titanium ribbon, flattening and cutting, and cutting into a single sheet or narrow ribbon or small titanium wire coil required by the user.

(8) Detection. In order to ensure that the product meets the standard or meets the requirements of the user, the size, shape and surface defects of the finished product before sale are checked. The defects detected are then corrected, trimmed, excised or discarded according to the situation. At the same time, sampling and testing the mechanical properties and organizational properties of the drilling materials, and adding non-destructive testing to the sky-slit pipe. At the same time, a qualified report is issued to the customer.

(9) Logo. In order to facilitate the user's use and transportation, and to track the quality of the product, all products should have a mark. The logo can be printed directly on the product, and the logo can be tied to the product at the same time. Because drinking materials are valuable products, each diamond product should have a printed logo. The content of the mark shall include the brand name, specification, batch number, factory standard, etc.

(10) Packaging. In order to facilitate product transportation. And to prevent the towel from damaging the product during transportation, it needs to be bundled and packaged before leaving the factory. Bundling methods vary depending on the product. For example, small cross-section profiles and bars can be bundled or coiled; strips and wires can be coiled; plates and tubes should be packaged and protected by wooden or thin steel plates.

Finishing is very important. It is a guarantee for the quality, geometry and weaving performance of the product to meet the standard requirements after the titanium is made. Only after the processed titanium material has been carefully sorted and packaged by this series of post-processing (ie finishing), its quality can be recognized by users. Therefore, finishing is also a "face-saving project", a plastic repair process.

Titanium alloy plate is an alloy composed of titanium added with other elements. Titanium has two kinds of crystals: close-packed hexagonal α titanium below 882℃, and body-centered cubic β titanium above 882℃. Technical requirements: 1: The chemical composition of titanium and titanium alloy plates should meet the requirements of GB/T 3620.1, and the allowable deviation of the chemical composition should meet the requirements of GB/T 3620.2 when the buyer re-inspects. 2: The allowable deviation of the thickness of the plate should meet the regulations. 3: The allowable deviation of the width and length of the plate should meet the regulations. 4: The corners of the plate should be cut at right angles as much as possible. When cutting, the length and width of the plate should not exceed the allowable deviation. .

Titanium alloys are alloys based on titanium added with other elements. Titanium has two kinds of crystals: close-packed hexagonal α titanium below 882℃, and body-centered cubic β titanium above 882℃. Alloying elements can be divided into three categories according to their influence on the phase transition temperature:

① The elements that stabilize the α phase and increase the phase transition temperature are α stabilizing elements, such as aluminum, carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen. Among them, aluminum is the main alloy element of titanium alloy, which has obvious effects on improving the alloy's normal temperature and high temperature strength, reducing the specific gravity, and increasing the elastic modulus.

②The element that stabilizes the β phase and reduces the phase transition temperature is the β-stabilizing element, which can be divided into two types: isomorphic and eutectoid. Products using titanium alloys. The former includes molybdenum, niobium, vanadium, etc.; the latter includes chromium, manganese, copper, iron, and silicon.

③ The elements that have little effect on the phase transition temperature are neutral elements, such as zirconium and tin. Oxygen, nitrogen, carbon and hydrogen are the main impurities in titanium alloys. Oxygen and nitrogen have greater solubility in the α phase, which has a significant strengthening effect on the titanium alloy, but it reduces the plasticity. Titanium alloy plates usually stipulate that the content of oxygen and nitrogen in titanium should be 0.15-0.2% and 0.04-0.05%, respectively. The solubility of hydrogen in the alpha phase is very small. Too much hydrogen dissolved in the titanium alloy will produce hydrides, which will make the alloy brittle. Generally, the hydrogen content in titanium alloys is controlled below 0.015%. The dissolution of hydrogen in titanium is reversible and can be removed by vacuum annealing.

Why is titanium most suitable as an engine material?

For countries in the world, aviation R&D and manufacturing industries are both systems engineering, often involving many industries and fields. Especially in the military industry, a fighter jet consists of a huge component system, and the most important thing is the engine. In the core technology link of engine R&D and production, materials are a prerequisite. In recent years, the concept of titanium alloy as engine material has become a global consensus. With the continuous improvement of my country's independent research and development technology, Chinese researchers have begun to realize the development and utilization of this high-tech material. It is worth mentioning that, as a resource-rich country, China itself is rich in titanium metal deposits. With the continuous improvement and upgrading of titanium alloy technology, including the F-20, many new fighters in China are expected to be modified with titanium alloy engines in the future. Improve performance level.

Why is titanium the most suitable as an engine material? First of all, in terms of its characteristics, the high strength of titanium is unique among many metal elements, far exceeding common aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys, and stainless steel. At the same time, it can maintain long-term stable work in a high-temperature environment of 450 to 500 ℃, and it also has comprehensive advantages such as good corrosion resistance, good low-temperature performance, high chemical activity, low thermal conductivity, and low elastic modulus. Said to be the most suitable manufacturing material for aero engines. Data shows that three-quarters of the titanium alloy materials currently produced worldwide are used in the aerospace industry.

As we all know, with the continuous surpassing of aviation research and development technology, the latest generation of aircraft, whether it is a civil aviation model or a military model, has higher and higher requirements for engines. In particular, the most critical performance-thrust-to-weight ratio has become a standard performance indicator for an advanced aircraft. From the early jet era generally only had a thrust-to-weight ratio of 2 to 3, to a thrust-to-weight ratio of more than 10 in the supersonic era today, it is due to the continuous upgrading of modern aero-engine materials. From the perspective of aeronautical theory, reducing the weight of an engine is the most critical way to improve the thrust-to-weight ratio of the engine. Because the density of titanium is only 40% of steel, but it has the same strength, its melting point of 1668℃ is also the most suitable high-temperature metal material for the manufacture of aero engines.

For a long time, my country has been catching up with European and American powers in independent engine research and development. Especially in the exploration and research of high-temperature-resistant titanium alloy materials, it has gradually shortened the gap with world-class countries. Previously, using titanium alloys as materials, our scientific research team has developed a variety of aero-engine materials such as TC-4, TC-11, TC-14, etc., especially the 550℃ high-temperature resistant titanium alloy TA-12 came out in the 1990s. It laid a solid foundation for the follow-up research and development of the fourth-generation domestic fighters.

Titanium alloy forging method

With the development of science and technology and the advancement of society, the degree of persecution of various industrialized production on the environment is increasing. However, the superior properties of titanium alloys are increasingly reflected in the production of the chemical industry.

Like isothermal forging, hot die forging is also a more promising precision forging process. The difference is that the mold temperature of hot die forging is higher than that of ordinary forging, but lower than that of isothermal forging. The temperature of the typical hot die forging die is 110～225℃ lower than the temperature of the blank. Compared with isothermal forging, the lowering of the mold temperature allows a wider selection of mold materials, but the ability to form thin and complex forgings is slightly worse.

Compared with conventional forging, hot die forging has the following advantages:

(1) Reduce material consumption of forgings. During hot die forging, the chilling of the die contacting the blank and the work hardening of the material are reduced, and the forgeability of the material is improved. Therefore, the forging is allowed to have a smaller fillet radius and a smaller draft The slope and small forging allowance greatly reduce the quality of forgings. For example, for a Ti-6Al-4V alloy structural part, the mass is 28kg, the mass of the forging produced by the conventional forging process is 154kg, and the mass of the forging produced by the hot die forging process is 109kg, the difference between the two methods is 45kg.

(2) Reduce the number of forging operations and improve the working capacity of the press. For hot die forging, the temperature of the die is higher, and the temperature drop of the blank is less. Conventional forging requires two fires, three fires or more to form forgings, hot die forging It only needs to be done once and at most two fires. And because of hot die forging, the deformation resistance of metal is low, which increases the working capacity of the equipment relatively.

(3) Reduce the amount of machining for forgings. Because the forgings produced are close to the weight and outline dimensions of the parts, compared with the forgings produced by conventional forgings, the amount of material removed during machining is reduced.

(4) The uniformity of the product is better. During the forging process, the temperature gradient is greatly reduced, and the uneven deformation caused by the temperature gradient is easily reduced. Therefore, the uniformity and consistency of the structure and performance of the product are better than that of conventional forging production forgings , But not as good as forgings produced by isothermal forging.

In hot die forging, although the temperature of the billet drops, it is still in the forging temperature range, and the deformation resistance does not rise as sharply as in conventional forging. The strain rate used in hot die forging varies in the range of 0.05 to 0.2s-1. If the strain rate is too low, the temperature of the blank may decrease.

In hot die forging of titanium alloy, forging heating temperature, strain rate, microstructure of preform and holding time are extremely important factors, which play a decisive role in the dimensional accuracy and microstructure of the formed part. Generally lower strain rates and longer holding times increase the possibility of precision forming. The microstructure of the preform has a direct impact on the flow stress and superplasticity of the material, especially the structure after forging. It is not possible to completely eliminate the defects and uneven grains in the raw material through isothermal forging or hot die forging.

Titanium alloy forging manufacturers talk about the performance characteristics of aviation titanium alloy

In the chemical industry and other application fields, high requirements are placed on semi-finished products and processed parts of titanium and titanium alloys. Therefore, in the fields of aviation and aerospace, the cost of developing inspection instruments and monitoring devices is particularly high. The price of alloy parts has a great influence. Titanium alloy has the highest tensile plasticity and can be welded in various ways. It can be used for a long time at a temperature of up to 250 degrees Celsius. It is mainly used to make various structural parts of aircraft and engines that are not stressed. Industrial pure titanium has good plasticity, can form various sheet metal stamping parts in a cold state, and has relatively high corrosion resistance. Ti5Al2.5Sn titanium alloy has medium room temperature tensile strength (800 degrees Celsius 1000MPa and good welding performance. Compared with industrial pure titanium, the new titanium alloy mainly includes various grades of industrial pure titanium and widely used Ti5Al2.5Sn For titanium alloys, the room temperature tensile strength of industrial pure titanium fluctuates in the range of 350 degrees Celsius and 700 MPa. Ti5Al2.5Sn alloy has slightly lower plasticity and higher thermal strength, and the long-term working temperature can reach 450 degrees Celsius.

With the rapid development of cutting-edge science and technology such as aviation, aerospace, and nuclear energy, the requirements for materials are becoming more and more stringent. Not only are the materials used for manufacturing these equipment parts to be corrosion-resistant, wear-resistant, and anti-fretting, but also require high-end resistance. temperature. It is necessary to pay attention to the long-term test, in many places, before the large-scale application of titanium to the chemical industry. Under the test conditions, cooperate to test its service life and material structure. If the lack of safety (immaturity) due to the use of conventional structural data is mostly indicated and the economic benefits are not great, then the first step is to gradually develop titanium and its alloys, and in recent decades, the development of high technology in the field of structural data Various other mature new materials. Therefore, the military sector has developed faster in the application of titanium and its alloys than in the civilian sector.

In many industrial media, rare earth metals and precious metals are mainly used for stability, or materials such as stainless steel can only reach a certain limit in corrosion resistance. Most applications use titanium to obtain benefits due to its low density, corrosion resistance and high strength. So far. Moreover, the consumption cost is relatively high, so the application of titanium or titanium alloy can obtain relatively high corrosion resistance strength. The creep characteristics of hard titanium at temperatures exceeding 150T surpass that of aluminum and its alloys. Considering that compared with other materials, titanium alloys have the advantages of unique creep characteristics under low-density conditions. It is found that hard titanium is used in aircraft manufacturing and missile manufacturing. The importance of the application. The earliest application of titanium and titanium alloys is the aviation industry. Recently, the aviation industry has increasingly urgently needed high-strength and low-density materials, which has greatly promoted the development of titanium manufacturing. In the early 1950s, the United States successfully used titanium on aircraft. At that time, although an E aircraft only used 1% of the structural weight of titanium, it opened up a pioneering way of using titanium in the aviation industry. At present, many kinds of high-speed aircraft in the world widely use titanium alloy as a structural material.

What is the key to titanium rod stretching?

The process of manufacturing Nb-Ti single-core titanium alloy bars generally uses hot forging, cold rolling, and cold swaging of alloy ingots. However, flashing or other defects often occur during cold rolling or cold forging, and surface repairs are required, which is time-consuming and labour-intensive, which is very unreasonable. The process of the Nb-Ti rod is to stretch the extruded rod to a diameter of 12.6 mm, and after annealing at 800°C, to a diameter of 3.2 mm. This can ensure the surface finish and the roundness of the titanium alloy bar. During stretching, an emulsion of molybdenum disulfide, graphite fine powder, agar, trichloroethylene and water is mixed and coated on the surface of the titanium alloy bar, and then stretched after drying to achieve better results.

The cold drawing process of Nb25—70%Zr (weight) alloy physical examination was studied. The relationship between the drawing die angle, the coefficient of friction and the drawing force was measured, and a suitable lubricant was also selected. Nb-Zr and Nb-Ti have co-extensive properties, which are completely suitable for the stretching of dry Nb-Ti rods.

Experiments have proved that the choice of lubricant is the key to the success or failure of stretching. Add graphite powder and molybdenum disulfide into the water and a volatile solution to make emulsion liquid, and apply it on the surface of the titanium alloy bar. After drying, a dense film is formed on the surface of the titanium alloy bar. It has a large pressure and is not easy to fall off. The die angle of the drawing die is 12-16°, but the angle of 18-20° is better.

Benefits of titanium alloy chopsticks

Limited by traditional techniques and costs, traditional Chinese chopsticks are generally made of wood and bamboo. But wooden chopsticks are prone to mold and bacteria. There are a variety of chopsticks on the market today, including plastic chopsticks, iron metal chopsticks and titanium alloy chopsticks. So what are the advantages and disadvantages of titanium alloy chopsticks and ordinary wooden chopsticks?

Titanium is called a space metal. It is suitable for the aerospace industry because of its lighter weight and greater hardness (titanium alloy is far better than aluminum alloy, comparable to stainless steel). At the same time, it is non-toxic, rust-free, non-magnetic and extremely corrosion-resistant, so it is often Used as a stent implanted in the human body, it can be said that it is the metal with the highest affinity with the human body.

Therefore, using titanium alloy chopsticks is harmless to the body, and alloy chopsticks are relatively slippery to use. Then I don’t know if the alloy material you mentioned is harmful to the human body. The advantage of alloy chopsticks may be that it is easier to clean and will not grow mold.

Titanium alloy chopsticks material safety and sanitation alloy chopsticks have passed the food-grade sanitation and safety inspection; non-adsorbent, more durable. Because the surface of the chopsticks body is not absorbent, the chopsticks body is not easy to be corroded and become old (the chopsticks will become brighter and brighter after using for a long time). It is non-absorbent and easy to clean. No detergent is needed for cleaning. Just put it in warm water and wipe it dry with a clean cloth and put it in a high-temperature disinfection cabinet for sterilization. It will truly be clean, hygienic and refreshing.

Titanium alloy chopsticks are tough and resistant to high temperature, not easy to bend, and not easy to deform; flammable and non-spontaneous; high temperature resistant and can be disinfected in a sterilization cabinet. The quality of the material is different, and the upper limit of high temperature resistance is different. Shengrui Titanium Edition said that long-term use of alloy chopsticks is harmless to the body, and alloy chopsticks are relatively slippery. The advantage of alloy chopsticks may be that it is easier to clean and will not grow mold.

After comparing for so long, it can be seen that titanium alloy chopsticks are not harmful to the human body, and they are easy to clean, and they are not suitable for mold growth and bacteria. They are a good helper at home.

Precautions for use of titanium rod filter and cleaning method

Titanium alloy plates and titanium plates are mainly used to manufacture various containers, reactors, heat exchangers, distillation towers, pipes, pumps and valves in the petrochemical machinery manufacturing industry. Titanium can be used as a titanium cathode and condenser in power stations, as well as environmental pollution control devices. The hardness of steel is higher than that of titanium plate, but the specific strength or tensile strength of titanium alloy is higher than that of high-quality steel. Titanium alloy has good heat resistance, low temperature toughness and fracture toughness, so it is mostly used as aircraft engine parts and rocket and missile structural parts. Titanium alloy can also be used as fuel and oxidant storage tanks and high-pressure vessels. At present, titanium alloys are used to make automatic rifles, mortar seat plates and recoilless gun launch tubes.

1. Memory function

Titanium-nickel alloy has one-way, two-way and omnidirectional memory effects at a certain ambient temperature, and is recognized as the best memory titanium alloy. Pipe joints are used in engineering for the hydraulic system of fighter jets; the oil pipeline system of oil complexes; the parabolic mesh antenna with a diameter of 500mm made of 0.5mm wire is used on aerospace vehicles; used in medical engineering to make snoring Treatment; Titanium plates are made into screws for fracture healing. The above applications have achieved obvious results.

2. Superconducting function

The niobium-titanium plate exhibits a superconducting function with zero resistance when the temperature is lower than the critical temperature.

3. Hydrogen storage function

Titanium-iron alloy has the property of absorbing hydrogen, which can store a large amount of hydrogen safely, and release hydrogen in a certain environment. This is very promising in hydrogen separation, hydrogen purification, hydrogen storage and transportation, and the manufacture of heat pumps and batteries that use hydrogen as energy.

Titanium dioxide, the oxide of the titanium plate, is a white powder and a better white pigment, commonly known as titanium white. In the past, the main purpose of mining titanium ore was to obtain titanium dioxide. Titanium dioxide has strong adhesion, is not easy to undergo chemical changes, and is always white. Especially valuable is that titanium dioxide is non-toxic. It has a high melting point and is used to make refractory glass, glazes, enamel, clay, and high-temperature laboratory utensils.

Heat treatment of titanium alloy

Commonly used heat treatment methods are annealing, solution and aging treatment. Annealing is to eliminate internal stress, improve plasticity and structural stability, and obtain better overall performance. Usually, the annealing temperature of α alloy and (α＋β) alloy is selected at 120～200℃ below the (α＋β)-→β phase transformation point; the solution and aging treatment are rapid cooling from the high-temperature zone to obtain martensite α′ phase and metastable Then the meta-stable phases are decomposed by heat preservation in the middle-temperature zone, and the fine and dispersed second phase particles such as the α phase or compounds are obtained to achieve the purpose of strengthening the alloy. Usually (α+β) alloys are quenched at 40～100℃ below the (α＋β)─→β phase transformation point, and metastable β alloys are quenched at 40～80℃ above the (α＋β)─→β phase transformation point. The aging treatment temperature is generally 450～550℃.
In summary, the heat treatment process of titanium alloy can be summarized as:
(1) Stress relief annealing: the purpose is to eliminate or reduce the residual stress generated during processing. Prevent chemical attack and reduce deformation in some corrosive environments.
(2) Complete annealing: the purpose is to obtain good toughness, improve processing performance, facilitate reprocessing and increase the stability of size and structure.
(3) Solution treatment and aging: The purpose is to improve its strength. α titanium alloy and stable β titanium alloy cannot be strengthened heat treatment, and only annealing is carried out in production. α+β titanium alloy and metastable β titanium alloy containing a small amount of α phase can further strengthen the alloy through solution treatment and aging.
In addition, in order to meet the special requirements of the workpiece, the industry also uses metal heat treatment processes such as double annealing, isothermal annealing, β heat treatment, and thermomechanical heat treatment.

The characteristics and application scope of titanium container and titanium equipment

Titanium materials have the characteristics of high hardness, lightweight, and corrosion resistance. Due to the superior performance and characteristics of titanium materials, they are made into titanium equipment and are widely used in many fields such as industry and chemical industry.
(1) Titanium has stronger corrosion resistance than stainless steel and aluminum in many media. Moreover, titanium has a light specific gravity and high specific strength.
Titanium is easy to produce dense titanium oxide passivation film on its surface in air and oxidizing, neutral aqueous medium, which makes the electrode potential of titanium significantly positively shift and greatly improves the thermodynamic stability. The passivation coefficient is used to express the degree of improvement of the chemical stability of the metal after passivation, iron is 0.18, nickel is 0.37, molybdenum is 0.49, chromium is 0.74, aluminum is 0.82, and titanium is 2.44.
(2) Titanium does not have the low-temperature brittleness problem like ferritic steel. Titanium can be used as a low-temperature container with a temperature as low as -269 degrees, but because austenitic stainless steel, aluminum, copper, etc. can also be used as a low-temperature container, It is also cheaper than titanium, so titanium is actually rarely used in low-temperature fixed containers. In aviation and aerospace, titanium is used as a mobile cryogenic container. It is important to use titanium's high specific strength, lightweight and characteristics.
(3) Carbon steel, low alloy steel, generally stainless steel, and aluminum have poor corrosion resistance in seawater, saltwater and other chlorine-containing media. Titanium has unique and excellent corrosion resistance, and about 50% of titanium containers are used To resist the corrosion of chlorine-containing media.
(4) Since the corrosion resistance of titanium is caused by the surface oxide film, general industrial pure titanium and titanium alloys are not resistant to corrosion in strong reducing media such as high-temperature hydrochloric acid. Ti-32Mo is resistant to hydrochloric acid corrosion, but its plasticity and process properties are poor. It has not been included in the pressure processing titanium standard, nor is it included in this standard as titanium for containers.
(5) Titanium fuming nitric acid, dry chlorine, methanol, trichloroethylene, liquid dinitrogen tetroxide, molten metal salt, carbon tetrachloride and other media under certain conditions may cause combustion, explosion or stress corrosion to cause titanium container If a malignant accident occurs, titanium containers should be avoided or used with caution for these media.
(6) Titanium will burn in pure oxygen with a temperature of more than 500 degrees or in the air with a temperature of more than 1200 degrees. Therefore, the titanium container must not be exposed to open flames in contact with air and oxygen to avoid burning of the titanium container.
(7) Titanium materials and titanium containers are generally not required to assess impact toughness.
(8) Titanium has excellent corrosion resistance. More than 90% of the industrial pure titanium TA1 and TA2 are used in the civil industry to make various titanium equipment, and 3/4 of this titanium equipment are used to make titanium containers. Therefore, China's titanium container occupies a pivotal position in the titanium industry.
