What is titanium diboride?
Among many compounds, titanium diboride has better high-temperature performance than metal carbide. For example, titanium diboride (TiB2) cermets are more suitable for use under high temperatures and high corrosion conditions than titanium carbide (TiC) and tungsten carbide (WC) cermets. The titanium diboride powder is gray (or gray-black), ranking sixth among the world's ten highest melting point materials (see Table 1 for melting point ranking); the oxidation resistance temperature in the air can reach 1100 . As a new ceramic material, it has excellent physical and chemical properties, high hardness, high melting point, chemical stability, electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, and excellent mechanical properties at high temperatures.
Preparation of titanium diboride
Carbon-thermal reduction method: take titanium and boron oxides as raw materials and carbon black as reducing agents, and conduct long-term high-temperature carbon reduction treatment in a carbon tube furnace. The purity of the synthesized titanium diboride powder depends on the purity of the raw material powder. This method is a process that is widely used in industrial production. The disadvantages are that the volume of the obtained titanium diboride powder particles is large, and the content of impurities is high.
 
Application direction of titanium diboride
Titanium diboride and its composites can be compounded with other metals and ceramic-based polymers to form a series of new materials with commercial application value
1. Titanium diboride can be used as a grain refining and particle strengthening additive, mixed into the aluminum base, copper base titanium aluminum alloy, and iron base materials, which can greatly improve the mechanical, physical, and chemical properties of materials. This grain refining and particle strengthening effect will increase with the increase of the purity and fineness of titanium diboride powder
2. Titanium diboride can be combined with non-oxide ceramics such as silicon carbide, aluminum nitride, boron nitride, titanium carbide, and other oxide ceramic materials. A large number of experimental studies show that the new composite material prepared from this has more excellent mechanical strength and fracture toughness and can be one of the high-quality materials for making armor protection materials
3. Titanium diboride particles mixed with high-performance resin can be made into PTC heating ceramics and head-type PTC materials, which have the characteristics of safety, energy saving, reliability, and easy processing and molding. It is a key high-tech for upgrading household appliances such as electric irons, electric blankets, ovens, air conditioners, hot air heaters, etc.
 
Price of titanium diboride
Titanium diboride particle size and purity will affect the product's price, and the purchase volume can also affect the cost of titanium diboride. A large amount of large amount will be lower. The price of titanium diboride can be found on our company's official website.
