Knowledge about Titanium Mesh

 

Titanium is a chemical element with the symbol. It is a lustrous transition metal with a silver color, low density, and high strength. Titanium is resistant to corrosion in sea water, aqua regia, and chlorine. Most important properties for titanium are high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance.

Titanium mesh, can be used as corrosion resistance anode, filtering for corrosive substance. Sacrificial anode is the unique usage for titanium mesh. Tantalum, of course has a better corrosion resistance in acidic environment, especially in sulfuric acid, but the price is more than 10 times of titanium. That makes titanium the most commonly used as anti-corrosion anode.

There are three types of titanium mesh by manufacturing method: weaved mesh, stamped mesh, expanded mesh.

Titanium weaved mesh is weaved by metal wire, the openings are regularly square. The diameter and opening size are mutual restriction. Wire mesh with small opening are mostly used for filtering.

Stamped mesh is stamped from titanium sheets, the openings are regularly round, it also can be other required-shape. Stamping dies are engaged in this product. The thickness and opening size are mutual restriction.

Titanium expanded mesh is expanded from titanium sheets, the openings are normally diamond. It is used as anode in many fields. Titanium mesh is usually coated with metal oxide and metal mixture oxide coated (MMO coated) such as RuO2/IrO2 coated anode, platinised anode. These mesh anodes are used for cathode protection. Different coatings are used for different circumstance. The coating process is plating and brushing, depends on coating materials and manufacture method from different shops.

Other weaving & expanding methods are also available, just need new mold and experiments.

Most common material is grade 2 C.P. titanium for titanium mesh. Information needed for a quote for titanium mesh: opening size, mesh stem, width x length, wire diameter/thickness, quantity.

Alloying of molybdenum

图片
  The alloying principle of molybdenum is similar to that of tungsten. All the strengthening methods used to improve the heat resistance of tungsten are basically applicable to molybdenum. There are mainly the following types: solid solution strengthening, precipitation strengthening, dispersion strengthening and composite strengthening. Solution strengthening Solid solution strengthening includes the addition of trace elements and high content elements. The trace element solid solution strengthening method mainly refers to adding a trace amount of Ti, Zr, Fe, Mn, La, B and other alloy elements for solid solution strengthening to improve the performance of molybdenum. When trace elements are added, a certain amount of carbon is often added to the alloy. It is the alloy elements and carbon that form carbide dispersed particles to strengthen the strengthening effect. High content element solid solution strengthening The elements that improve the binding force between atoms...

Knowledge about TZM Alloy

  TZM material is an alloy of 0.50% Titanium, 0.08% Zirconium and 0.02% Carbon with the balance Molybdenum and is typically manufactured by powder metallurgy or arc-casting processes. It has a higher recrystallization temperature, higher creep strength & hardness, and higher tensile strength than pure molybdenum. In addition, TZM exhibits good thermal conductivity, low vapor pressure, good corrosion resistance and is machinable.   TZM Molybdenum Physical Properties: Density: 10.22g/cc, 0.37lb/in3 Melting Point: 2623°C, 4753°F Thermal Conductivity: 0.48 Cal/cm2/cm°C/sec Specific Heat: 0.073 Cal/gm/°C Coefficient of Linear Thermal Expansion: 2.50 micro-in/°F x 10-6 Electrical Resistivity: 6.85 micro-ohm-cm   The molybdenum TZM is a normally utilized constructional material for high-temperature applications. These microstructural aspects significantly affect quality at raised temperatures. By methods for carbide-reinforcing TZM features impro...

Tungsten tube-High density & melting point metal tube

图片
  Tungsten tubes are drilled from tungsten bars / rods, W tube with massive OD are going to be mold directly.   Tungsten – periodic symbol W - lays claim to the very best freezing point of all components. This characteristic combined with a superb ability to resist thermal shock enhances its ability to perform well as a conductor. Rocket cones, that should stand up to fast temperature changes and recurrent on and off cycles, area unit typically manufactured from tungsten. Tungsten's density conjointly permits it to expeditiously block radiation from sure areas whereas directional it to others. It will direct and form a beam of radiation, permitting doctors additional exactitude and management whereas treating cancerous tissue. With the employment of tungsten devices and shields, doctors area unit ready to target cancerous areas, whereas at the same time shielding healthy tissue from the harmful effects of radiation. Application The quartz production method uses c...
