Titanium alloy industry chain

The industrial chain of the titanium industry can be simply divided into two, one is the industrial chain of non-ferrous metals: titanium ore→sponge titanium→titanium ingot→titanium material; the other is the industrial chain of chemical industry: titanium ore→titanium dioxide. These two industrial chains are closely related to each other in the upstream, but are independent of each other in the midstream and downstream.

The titanium non-ferrous metal industry chain can be divided into three major parts from top to bottom:

1) The upstream includes titanium ore resources such as ilmenite and rutile, as well as artificial rutile, titanium slag and Grade 1 Titanium Tube tetrachloride processed from ilmenite;

2) The middle stream is mainly divided into two parts: one is the reduction of titanium tetrachloride to generate sponge titanium; the other is the melting and casting of sponge titanium into titanium ingots, and then the preparation of titanium round rod processing materials including forgings, bars, plates, pipes, wires, wires, etc. ;

3) The downstream is mainly to further process titanium blanks according to the requirements of specific applications such as aerospace, petrochemical, nuclear power, ships, desalination, automobiles, sports medicine and other fields;
