Overview of titanium carbide powder

Titanium carbide powder is a kind of powder material with excellent physical and chemical properties, and its main components are carbon and titanium. This powder has high hardness, good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, as well as excellent electrical and thermal conductivity. Because of these unique properties, titanium carbide powder has a wide range of applications in many fields, such as aerospace, automotive, energy, medical and jewelry.

Preparation method of titanium carbide powder

There are two main methods for preparing titanium carbide powder: physical method and chemical method.

1. Physical method: The physical method is to prepare titanium carbide powder by carbonizing titanium metal and carbon black or hydrocarbons at high temperatures. The titanium carbide powder obtained by this method has high purity but low yield.

2. Chemical method: The chemical method is to react titanium salt with carbon black or hydrocarbons at high temperatures to generate titanium carbide precipitation. The titanium carbide powder obtained by this method has higher yield and lower cost, but the purity is relatively low.

Titanium carbide powder application field

1. Aerospace: Titanium carbide powder is widely used in the manufacture of turbine blades and other key components of aerospace engines due to its high hardness and excellent wear resistance.

2. Automotive: Titanium carbide powder is used in the automotive manufacturing industry to manufacture high-performance engine components such as piston rings and cylinder liners.

3. Energy: Titanium carbide powder can be used to make efficient solar panels and key components in nuclear reactors.

4. Medical treatment: Due to the excellent biocompatibility of titanium carbide powder, it can be used to manufacture medical equipment such as artificial joints and dental plants.

5. Jewelry: Because titanium carbide powder has high hardness and excellent color, it is widely used in the manufacture of high-end jewelry.
