I.titanium pipeWhat's that?speak it out in one sentence
titanium pipeIs titanium or titanium alloy (TA1/TA2/TA9/TA10/TC4, etc.) as the base material, the extrusion, rolling, welding and other processes made of metal pipe.Mainly used to transport dilute sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, wet chlorine gas, Corrosive media such as seawater, Can also be used in heat exchangers, condenser, High temperature and high pressure conditions such as coil in reactor.in chemical plants, Marine Engineering, nuclear power, Widely used in the pharmaceutical industry, Many ordinary stainless steel pipes are difficult to withstand corrosion conditions, select and usetitanium pipestable operation.
Second,titanium pipethe core advantages of
A lot of buyers wondertitanium pipeHigher procurement costs, overall comparison, TA2titanium pipedilute sulphuric acid, Hydrochloric acid environment can be stable for 15-20 years, The 316L stainless steel pipe usually only lasts for half a year to 2 years, Easy to corrode and punctureUnder wet chlorine and hypochlorous acid medium, stainless steel pipes will fail in a few months.TC4titanium pipeCan withstand up to 600℃ high temperature, 316L stainless steel applicable temperature generally does not exceed 400℃.Titanium tubes are 40% lighter than stainless steel and are completely non-magnetic.
Although titanium tube purchase unit price is higher than stainless steel, But from life cycle costing, Titanium tube long life cycle, Reduce frequent tube changes, shutdown, Expenses such as disassembly and assembly labor, Long-term comprehensive cost is better.
Three, titanium pipe 6 major mainstream brand selection reference
Shaanxi Qianyi Tuoda has more than 3000 tons of titanium stock, complete grades, and can be selected according to working conditions.TA1, titanium purity ≥99.5%, suitable for weak corrosion, biological medicine, seawater conditions, moderate price;TA2, titanium purity ≥99.2%, is a common chemical brand, wide range of applications;TA9 is Ti-0.2Pd titanium palladium alloy, suitable for strong acid, strong reducing medium, high price;TA10 material Ti-0.3Mo-0.8Ni, suitable for dilute sulfuric acid, dilute hydrochloric acid, wet chlorine scene, high price;TC4 Ti-6Al-4V, high strength, can withstand 400℃ working conditions, high price;Ti-6Al-4V ELI ultra-low clearance TC4, mostly used for medical implantation, ocean deep diving scene, the highest price.
Selection reference formula: hydrochloric acid, dilute sulfuric acid working condition priority TA10;TA9 is selected for strong acid and pitting risk;Seawater desalination, offshore platform optional TA2 or TA10;Ti-6Al-4V ELI shall be selected for medical implant and body-contacting parts;TC4 is selected for high temperature, high pressure and high strength working conditions;Conventional chemical normal temperature and pressure conditions, TA2 cost-effective choice is better.
Four, titanium tube 2 big molding process: seamless titanium tube vs welded titanium tube
For procurement and type selection, firstly, the pipe forming process shall be distinguished, and the applicable scenarios and cost differences of the two pipes are obvious.Seamless titanium tube cold rolled, Cold drawing process production, Strong pressure bearing capacity, high temperature resistant, is the chemical, Nuclear power project optimization products, Conventional OD 6-114mm, Wall thickness 0.5-10mm, Compliance with ASTM B861, GB/T 3624-3625 standard.Welded titanium tubes through
Titanium PlateStrip coil welding and weld treatment, Procurement costs reduced by approximately 30% compared to seamless tubes, Mostly used in low pressure conditions, Conventional outer diameter 10-1500mm, Wall thickness 0.5-25mm, Compliance with ASTM B862, GB/T 26723 Standard, Welded titanium tubes can be used with
Titanium PlateSupporting material selection.
Five, titanium tube six manufacturing processes and quality inspection points
Titanium tube production process includes raw material inspection, tube making, heat treatment, surface treatment, finished product inspection.titanium ingot, Bar raw materials after entering the factory, Spectral analysis is required to verify the grade, Distinguish TA2, TA10 and other different materials.Pipe making is divided into hot extrusion perforation (suitable for large diameter thick wall pipe), Cold rolling cold drawing seamless process (size accuracy up to ±0.05mm), Strip coil welding Automatic TIG /plasma welding.Vacuum annealing at 650-750℃ after production, stress relief of tubing, Avoid deformation and cracking after being put into use.
Surface treatment can be done acid pickling to remove oxide layer;Medicine, semiconductor conditions can be polished inside and outside, control surface roughness Ra≤0.8μm;the micro-arc oxidation can generate a TiO2 ceramic protective lay and improve that wear resistance and the pollution resistance.The quality inspection of finished products includes spectral material verification, and the component deviation is controlled within ±0.05%;Ultrasonic and eddy current nondestructive testing;Tensile impact hardness mechanical test;Hydraulic or pneumatic pressure test;Full size inspection of outer diameter, wall thickness and ovality.Each batch of titanium tubes comes with SGS /Pony test report, supporting third-party re-inspection, can be matched withTitanium forgingSupplied as a complete set.
Six, titanium tube six typical application scenarios
Chlor-alkali chemical industry is the most commonly used field of titanium pipe, The medium contains wet chlorine, hydrochloric acid, sodium hypochlorite, Choose TA10 or TA9, Service life up to 15-20 years, Serving Shaanxi, Henan (Province), Shandong many chlor-alkali enterprises for many years.Ocean Engineering and Seawater Desalination Project, The medium is 3.5% high concentration brine, Select TA2, Stable use for more than 20 years, Applied to Zhejiang, Fujian coastal seawater desalination reverse osmosis high-pressure pipeline.Petrochemical hydrocracking scenario, high-temperature oil gas, hydrogen sulfide medium, Select TC4, Stable operation at 500℃.TA2 titanium pipe is selected for nuclear power project, which is non-magnetic, anti-radiation corrosion and has a design life of 40 years.Medical field Ti-6Al-4V ELI implantable titanium tube, used for pharmaceutical purified water, medical gas pipeline, MRI liquid helium cooling.hydrogen Energy, High purity titanium tube for semiconductor industry, Hydrogen energy pipeline can withstand pressure of 35MPa and above, Semiconductor tubes meet NAS Class1 cleanliness.
Seven, titanium pipe implementation standards and 2026 procurement market
