Analysis on the development trend of titanium alloy industry in 2024
Titanium alloy industry Overview Although titanium alloy has excellent performance, it is very difficult to process. When the Brinell hardness is less than 300, the sticking knife is serious. When it is greater than 370, too hard processing is difficult, and most titanium alloys have low thermal conductivity, the heat generated in the processing process will not be quickly transferred to the workpiece, but concentrated in the cutting area, on the one hand will make the tool wear rapidly, on the other hand will destroy the surface integrity of the parts, resulting in the geometric accuracy of parts decline and work hardening phenomenon. In particular, specific types of military titanium materials generally require multiple plastic processing, and how to ensure the uniformity and stability of quality to achieve industrial mass production is a technical challenge in the world. At present, only the United States, Russia, Japan, China, and the former CIS (Ukraine and Kazakhstan) five countries and regions in the world have mastered the complete titanium processing and manufacturing process, and the world is showing a situation of five strong competition. In terms of classification, titanium alloy can be mainly divided into industrial pure titanium, α titanium alloy, β titanium alloy and α+β titanium alloy, according to different uses to make different structures, in aviation, chemical and metallurgical industries are widely used.
The definition and classification of titanium alloy Titanium alloy refers to titanium as a matrix, adding one or more alloying elements, through smelting or powder metallurgy and other methods made of alloy

Titanium alloy industry chain analysis Titanium alloy industry chain mainly includes the following links: 1, titanium resources mining: titanium resources refers to the minerals or rocks containing titanium elements, mainly rutile, ruthenium iron and ilmenite. China is one of the countries with the richest titanium resources in the world, with about 20% of the global reserves, but most of them are low-grade calcium-magnesium ilmenite, which is difficult to exploit and has a low utilization rate. 2, titanium concentrate smelting: titanium concentrate refers to after mineral processing or chemical treatment, containing a higher proportion of titanium substances, mainly rutile concentrate and ruthenium iron ore concentrate. After smelting titanium concentrate, products such as titanium sponge or titanium dioxide can be obtained. Sponge titanium refers to the reduction of metal titanium from its oxide through chlorination or electrolysis, forming a sponge-like substance, which is the basic raw material for the manufacture of titanium alloys. Titanium dioxide refers to the sulfuric acid method or chlorination method, the metal titanium is separated from its oxide, forming a white powder-like substance, is the basic raw material for the manufacture of titanium dioxide. 3, titanium dioxide production: titanium dioxide refers to titanium dioxide as the main component of the white pigment, with high hiding power, high refractive index and high weather resistance and other characteristics, widely used in coatings, plastics, ink, paper and other industries. China is the world's largest producer and consumer of titanium dioxide, with output reaching 3.51 million tons in 2020, accounting for more than 40% of the global total. 4, titanium alloy production: Titanium alloy refers to the sponge titanium matrix, adding one or more alloying elements, through smelting or powder metallurgy and other methods made of alloy. According to different processing methods, titanium alloys can be divided into ingot, forging, plate, bar, pipe, wire and other forms. China is the world's largest producer and consumer of titanium sponge, with production reaching 125,000 tons in 2020, accounting for more than 30% of the global total. 5, titanium alloy application: Titanium alloy after processing, can be used in various fields. According to different application needs, titanium alloys can be made into various parts or equipment, such as aircraft structural parts, engine parts, missile parts, artificial joints, dental implants, surgical instruments, etc., which plays an important role in improving biocompatibility and antibacterial properties. 6, other industries: Titanium alloys are also widely used in other industrial fields, accounting for about 30% of global titanium consumption. Titanium alloys are mainly used in chemical equipment in other industries.
