Titanium alloys can also be used as fuel and oxidizer tanks and high pressure vessels. Titanium alloy has been used to manufacture automatic rifles, mortar panels and the firing tubes of recoilless guns. In the petroleum industry mainly for a variety of containers, reactors, heat exchangers, distillation columns, pipelines, pumps and valves. Titanium can be used as a condenser for electrodes and power stations and as an environmental pollution control device. Nickel-titanium shape memory alloy has been widely used in instruments. In medicine, titanium is used for artificial bones and various appliances. Titanium is also a deoxidizer for steelmaking and a component of stainless steel and alloy steel.
Because it is difficult to extract and process, the cost of titanium preparation is always high, and it is difficult to popularize on a large scale. Metal injection molding (MIM) is a kind of near-net forming technology formed by introducing modern plastic injection molding technology into the field of powder metallurgy, which can effectively solve the difficult problem of titanium processing and realize the large-scale production of small complex titanium products. However, at present, expensive spherical titanium powder is mostly used in titanium MIM raw materials, which leads to high final product cost and limits its large-scale application.
Using low-cost titanium hydride powder to replace spherical titanium powder in whole or in part, the evolution of tissue structure of MIM injection embryo added by titanium hydride powder was studied during degreasing and vacuum sintering. It was found that the irregular shape of titanium hydride powder would decrease the catalytic degreasing rate and increase the carbon and oxygen content of sintered samples. TiC particles are produced during sintering, thus improving the strength, hardness and friction resistance of the sample. Studies have shown that appropriate addition of titanium hydride powder can reduce the final cost of titanium MIM, and has the potential to be applied in wearable medical devices and other fields.
