Titanium materials can be used in the aviation industry

With the continuous research on titanium metal, it plays an indispensable role in all walks of life. Due to its special characteristics, titanium metal can be used not only in general industry, but also in aviation industry. Today, the editor of Baoji titanium material manufacturer will tell you about titanium metal.

The specific strength (ratio of strength to weight) of titanium and its alloys is the highest among metal structural materials. Its strength is equivalent to that of steel, but its weight is only 57% of that of steel. In addition, titanium and its alloys have strong heat resistance, and can still maintain good strength and stability in an atmosphere of 500 ° C, and the short-term working temperature can even be higher. Aluminum loses its original mechanical properties at 150°C and stainless steel at 310°C.

When aircraft missiles and rockets fly at high speed, the engine and surface temperature are quite high, and aluminum alloy is no longer competent. Titanium alloy is very suitable. It is precisely because Tantalum Sputtering Target and its alloys have comprehensive excellent properties such as high strength, light weight, and strong heat resistance, when they are used in aircraft manufacturing to replace other metals, it can not only prolong the service life of the aircraft, but also reduce its weight, thereby Greatly improve its flight performance. Therefore, titanium is one of the more promising structural materials in the aviation industry and aerospace industry.

The amount of titanium used in aircraft engines has increased, and the fuselage also partially requires titanium. Aircraft with a Mach number greater than 3.5 have a high engine inlet temperature, so they cannot have a high impact strength, and can withstand high pressure and vibration. Therefore, ASTM F67 Gr2 Titanium Plate and its alloys are only used to manufacture engine casings and structural components in rockets, missiles and spacecraft, and are used to manufacture high-pressure containers, such as high-pressure gas cylinders, cryogenic liquid fuel tanks, etc. In addition, titanium and its alloys are used in nuclear reactors and military weapons.
