How to clean and maintain the buildings of titanium plate?

Any material with the external environment will generate pollution, if not ignored and cleaned regularly, over time will produce is difficult to remove the case, although no corrosion phenomenon, but the appearance is very huge impact. Titanium metal material before cleaning, it is recommended to choose a small area, in order to clean the company's agents to clean, and then wait until it is drier than the rear surface of the original plate, confirmation and then a large area clean, and from top to bottom, the relevant agents pH value should be confirmed, to avoid unnecessary fouling.

1.maintenance mode
(1) When the produce unglued, you can use a sponge or cloth, alcohol, acetone, toluene or a mixture of alcohol and wipe dry when the solution yet, use a clean cloth to scrub.
(2) When generating fingerprints, rain and dust caused by dirt, use a mild detergent or soap. If unable to clear, then remove degumming process to remove it.
(3) titanium surface material and concrete caused by dirt, scrub dilute hydrochloric acid 5%.
(4) titanium zinc sheet metal material and components caused by dirt, scrub dilute hydrochloric acid 15%.
(5) have to be taken after the cleaning water, not residual solution to the material.
(6) The use of the colored titanium metal building materials, not containing
Hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, decontamination powder ingredients to clean, it will cause can not be reinstated.

2.Considerations
(1) titanium material dirt and discoloration of reasons, because of the pollution situation is not the same phenomenon presents different, to be different depending on the status of the clean-up operations one by one, can not summarize a comprehensive clean-up, part of the proposal should be tested against a scrub, dirt observation removal and color condition, and then decide whether to fully clean.
(2) Use a sponge, cotton, nylon, etc. Please hole along parallel grinding titanium wipe clean, the force should be uniform. When the circle with scrub, dirt difficult to remove, but also damaging the surface gloss and light shines colorimeter.
(3) If the dirt is serious, you should avoid using crude bucking (sandpaper, steel wire, etc.), this will not only destroy the titanium light lines, it will undermine the surface, thus causing the dirt.
(4) If the cleaning, use a commercially available cleaners, not only to clean the dirt area, but also around to cleaning, to avoid leaving differences.
(5) When the building clean exterior, if the cleaning liquid splash to the titanium surface, please clean water, dry, if ignored, can cause discoloration of reasons.
(6) When using colored titanium, be sure to provide clean technology manufacturer, to avoid loss of color film and colored titanium.

Types and applications of titanium plates

Do home space looks luxurious texture, you do not have to use explicit and flamboyant materials to create. Titanium plate can often be seen being used in a department store or boutique counters, elevators, cars, automatic doors or escalator, because of its different substrate surface (wool yarn, mirror, random pattern, fog beads), can show different feeling, recently it has more and more designers bold use of space in the home!

Very early use of titanium in industrial buildings, based on the way the physical vacuum ion plating titanium nitride (tin) process in the material, the most common is plated on stainless steel, of course, can also be coated in hard substrates such as tiles or aluminum, copper and the like. Antioxidant, wear and do not fade, etc., and therefore more suitable for use in wet environments, covered the kitchen or bathroom. Compared to chemical plating plate, longer service life, because the whole production process is based on physical principles of processing, harmless, zero pollution, also known as green coated.
Titanium plate variety, there are titanium bristles panel, titanium and titanium mirror panels random pattern plate and titanium matte bead board, under the designer's ingenuity through, different surfaces can exhibit different spatial performance in the use, it can also bring out the lines of the neat, geometric shapes and other fun feeling.

Currently, titanium materials are often used in indoor public spaces, such as restaurants, living room or entrance. However, if the license on the budget, big also be used in the locker room or bedroom, or design on the desktop. Use titanium mirror panels, the reflective effect, can make visual space becomes avant-garde. If the large-scale use titanium mirror panels, can easily be room reflections, creating a visual phantom space twice. Titanium bristles plate fog or mist flu mix of warm wood bead board, you can have both "cold" and "warm" feel.

Even with the door frame or sheet closing sapwood, because of single lines and other building materials also make home become structured simple and neat. I want to create a luxurious texture, golden titanium plate using the amplifier and gorgeous coexist. But special titanium production process, so compared to other materials, the price is slightly higher. In addition, the trend of the impact of design changes, in addition to different styles panel, the panel after getting physical vacuum plating (pvd), the titanium plate also has a new style rendering. From silver, copper, gray, to black, champagne or rose gold, so the cold becomes lively sense of fun, create a rich visual experience. Regardless of the basic style or color titanium plate, you can decorate a dream tide space.

Titanium is widely used in the electroplating industry

Electroplating tank titanium anode baskets, such as Tong Gang, nickel cylinder, tin ball tin cylinder (surface ruthenium, rhodium-plated); gold cylinder insoluble anodes (surface plated platinum, ruthenium or rhodium-plated); heating pipe / (sometimes also into a hot pen); a condenser, and some of the equipment housing!

As a precious metal titanium, titanium and titanium plate in circuit board plating production enterprise is widely used, with excellent mechanical properties and excellent specific strength (strength / density ratio), more superior performance titanium; titanium Mechanical properties of the alloy by the following factors: the type of the alloy, and the addition amount ratio, processing methods, processing capacity, heat treatment conditions and the like prior to use. For example titanium shafts, titanium multilayer inner main black / brown treatment, plywood Desmear swell, except plastic tank (sometimes alkaline chemistry in addition to copper sump also apply, but multi-purpose stainless steel 316.

Titanium also has the following advantages:

1. A high temperature characteristics:

At high temperatures, tensile strength and excellent creep properties, up to 300 degrees around titanium metal, titanium alloys at 500 degrees still has a stable strength;

2. low-temperature characteristics:

At absolute zero, no embrittlement, still has good fatigue strength and fracture toughness;

3. anti-fatigue toughness:

But after welding heat affected zone significantly decrease fatigue strength phenomena;

4. corrosion resistance, acid and alkali resistance:

The corrosion resistance of titanium depends on the stability of the oxide film on the surface

Titanium Basics Introduction

Due to the excellent corrosion resistance of titanium, titanium is widely used in petroleum, chemicals, salt,; the relevant pharmaceutical, metallurgy, electronics, aviation, aerospace, marine and other.

Titanium is a metal having a strong tendency to passivation, and oxidizing in air or a neutral aqueous solution can quickly generate a stable oxidation protective film, even if the film is destroyed for some reason, can quickly resume automatically. Thus Titanium has excellent corrosion resistance in oxidizing, neutral medium.

Due to the huge passivation properties of titanium, in many cases when in contact with dissimilar metals does not accelerate corrosion, which may accelerate the corrosion of dissimilar metals. When such a low concentration of non-oxidizing acids, if Pb, Sn, Cu, or Monel and titanium-contact electrical coupling, accelerate corrosion of these materials, and titanium is not affected. In hydrochloric acid, when brought into contact with the titanium low carbon steel, since the surface of titanium nascent hydrogen, destroys the oxide film of titanium, titanium not only causes hydrogen embrittlement, and to accelerate the corrosion of titanium, titanium this may be due to hydrogen is highly activity due.

Titanium iron content of certain media affect corrosion resistance, iron number of reasons in addition to the reasons of raw materials, are often contaminated iron welding weld penetration, so the local iron bead increased, which When corrosion has an uneven nature. Used iron pieces to support titanium equipment, iron titanium contact surface iron contamination is almost inevitable in accelerated corrosion of iron contamination zone, especially in the presence of hydrogen. When the surface of the titanium oxide film contamination of mechanical damage, infiltration of hydrogen on metal, depending on the temperature, pressure and other conditions, the hydrogen generating corresponding diffusion, which makes titanium produce different degrees of hydrogen embrittlement. Therefore titanium at moderate temperatures and moderate pressure and hydrogen used in the system to avoid surface iron contamination.

Because titanium in hydrocarbons corrosion resistance is very good, even when containing acid and chloride impurities is also very good. Therefore, in the organic chemical industry Titanium is also widely used, such as PTA (purified terephthalic acid), PVA (Vinylon), etc. Titanium has excellent corrosion resistance in seawater, it is also widely used titanium offshore oil drilling platform, desalination and other marine areas.

Titanium and titanium alloy manufacturing technology

Since the cost titanium alloy is very high, in order to make cost reduction to lower the price increases throughout the metal alloy materials market competitiveness. It is widely believed Titanium has incomparable superiority of other material, but the price of titanium often consumers (especially the car manufacturers) prohibitive, appears low quality titanium will certainly help expand the application of titanium and titanium alloys.

    From the present situation of the development of applications and titanium processing technology, the plastic processing technology of titanium and titanium alloys in the future will be towards the following directions:

    (1) high-performance, namely the development of the use of higher temperatures, higher than the strength higher than the modulus, corrosion resistance and abrasion resistance and better alloys.

    (2) multi-functional, namely the development of a variety of special features and use of titanium alloys, such as high damping, low expansion, constant resistance, high resistance, resistance to electrolytic passivation and hydrogen storage, shape memory, superconductivity, low modulus biological medical and other alloys, in order to make titanium and titanium alloys to further expand the application.

    (3) to deepen the study of traditional alloys, through equipment and process improvements, improved performance of existing practical alloys, expanding the use of conventional alloys.

    (4) the use of advanced processing technology, processing equipment, large-scale, continuous, continuous processing technology development, direct rolling technology, cold forming technology and productivity performance of titanium alloy, the yield and product near net shape technology to improve
ʱ??
    (5) cost of the development of free alloy containing less noble metal elements, add iron, oxygen, nitrogen and other low-cost elements, shaping the development of easy processing, easy cutting, alloying elements and inexpensive titanium master alloy. Developed to maximize the use of titanium material crippled, maimed titanium improve recycling rates. This is particularly important to reduce the cost of civil Titanium.

    (6) the use of advanced computer technology to simulate the deformation of the workpiece machining process, forecasting the evolution of the microstructure of the metal, and even predict the mechanical properties of the final product (yield strength, tensile strength, elongation and hardness, designed or modified for mold, tooling; analysis and processing test results, reducing test, improve work efficiency and reduce development costs.

Aluminum surface treatment on problem solving approach

Use aluminum plate quality is not very good, too many impurities will be mixed inside take peeling in aluminum plate,the aluminum sheet after shot blasting treatment, the aluminum oxide layer above will be destroyed. Can not handle very clean, remained part of the oxide layer on top of.
Shot in order to make work further compaction, usually every square centimeter of power by force of 3 kg around, if  itself die-casting have quality problems, such as pores, bubbles, cold shut, playing in real time will be blasting produce peeling phenomenon, which is the same concept of non-casting from the peeling to separate.
Of the above questions is currently no effective method, you can learn basic processing pathways:
1, will be  improve the quality of the work piece;
2, lower pressure blasting;
3 Shot from the skin site to be polished, such as sanding the bottom of the problem, you can re-throw.

How to handle the problems of aluminum sheet?

Aluminum sheet in the production process of rendering a lot of harm, scratches, rubs and so on, which is when the aluminum plate from flowing out of the membrane pores in the process will be presented, as well as perhaps in the future use of the processing takes place in the process this is only the appearance of scars, the main reason is there are several causes of.

    1. In the production process, from swing bed generals dragged down abrasions aluminum sheet formation.

    2. The transport process of aluminum sheet, the mutual information between the amount of conflict will be deformed.

    3. In the time-division operation, there are some solid debris belt material, and then to touch the aluminum sheet after a certain hazard occurs.

    4. Before the aluminum plate tracks, present some debris on the track, perhaps within the graphite hard object, will be on the aluminum sheet forming a certain hazards.

    5. When will the bumps in the process of discharging speed can not be too soon, too fast to put the aluminum sheet on the bed.

    These are some of the production will be presented on these abrasions nor is not resolved, following the introduction of several solutions.

    1. The production process must be strengthened demand for ingot quality control.

    2. The aluminum sheet material in the box seat must be placed to be reasonable, so that we can be useful to reduce conflict.

    3. nitride mold timing must demand protection, we can improve the quality of the mold.

    4. Do not because it is not Reflections aluminum plate gently, and the best is not free to drag aluminum sheet. Be sure to use between aluminum sheet and aids.

    5. soft things apart, touch less and assistive devices can be useful to fall hazards.

how can we distinguish the fake or real aluminum alloy fastly?

Since more and more aluminum alloy products appear after another, it's not easy to tell when we select it, a lot of unscrupulous manufacturers took the opportunity to make trouble, aluminum alloy mixed fish heads on the market, real to the enemy, indeed a headache for consumers. But how can we distinguish the fake or real aluminum alloy fastly?

1. There are two sides of aluminum alloy:sub-sided and single-sided.

2. At the time of purchasing it,you need to observe its surface and color, whether the appearance is smooth, the color is gorgeous.

3. aluminum alloy glue seam neat, decorative aluminum plate when building exterior, between the plates must usually have a slit width.

4. If the appearance of aluminum alloy with deform and dark,these are defective.

5. You can analyze aluminum alloy, the primary problem is on the bottom of the aluminum plate , the dealer would recommend that you purchase the underlying data is the high-density wood panels and more similar. It's outdoor use, their life is very weak, will deform easily after wind, sun and rain. The underlying data are already deformed, do not be fooled by dealers, must hold what you want to buy.

How to clean pattern aluminum plate professionally?

Pattern aluminum plate in life is becoming more common, and the role of pattern aluminum is also growing, after the washing process will become more beautiful pattern aluminum alloy in the production process will often appear loose ingot or blowhole and other defects, to the production process of a lot of trouble. Following small and you a brief introduction pattern aluminum plate washing deal with it, how to be more professional washing pattern aluminum plate.

Start porosity is concerned, it is mainly among aluminum ingot circular hole, the reason is mainly formed when dissolved gas is always in a state of saturation, and the melt, there are still a lot of non-metallic inclusions It slows things, so that the gas in the process of casting floating rate, bubbles will remain in the pores of the ingot.

Loose ingot form factors are two: First, there is no removal of loose melt gases; the second is a loose contraction generated when it is related to gas and melt, generally when we conduct analysis mainly based on gas content of the melt and the casting speed.

In fact, we can also use a liquid feeding mode, so it reduces the metal in the furnace residence time, can make the inside of the gas furnace in the continuous saturation effect to get a good release and decomposition, but also good control generation of impurities, reduce non-metallic slag material.

1, after alkaline etching, the aluminum plate surface pattern will be left Dalian alkaline etching grooves film, which we call water alkaline etching after. Pattern aluminum plate base after etching is more difficult to clean, and first of all we want in favor of cleaning products point of view, the first tank to maintain the temperature of the water and alkaline water is not going to replace. After washing twice, in order to make a better cleaning effect, we can be appropriately stirred. After washing twice watching work How much amount may be, it can not handle the overflow.

2, it is necessary to go through at least two water washing step is called neutralized. This washing we recommend using circulating water cleaning, doing so in order to protect normal oxidation tank when, because in and the nitric acid tank, if it is brought into the oxidation tank, then there may not form an oxide film, or an increase in the oxidation tank impurities, this will accelerate the aging of the oxidation tank.

3, a simple two washing, washing after chemical polishing after chemical polishing will be from some residual liquid, in order to better clean, small second sink recommend using circulating water, the first water tank maintained at a temperature on the line.

TC4 titanium rod forging process analysis

Large deformation resistance of titanium alloy, chemically active, thus forging process has special problems and difficulties. First, the microstructure and properties of titanium forgings for forging thermal parameters are very sensitive. Titanium forging temperature range is relatively narrow in the forging process, with the increase of strain rate, its deformation resistance increased significantly, showing a strong strain rate sensitivity. Second, the thermal conductivity of titanium alloys is poor, in the forging process prone to localized overheating, resulting in a large temperature difference between inside and outside, inside and outside the degree of deformation of the blank exacerbate uneven distribution, resulting in cracking the forging process, and in severe cause product obsolescence. Therefore, studying the effects of different forging process on the microstructure and mechanical properties of titanium alloys, to seek a reasonable forging process to forming titanium forgings production has important practical significance.

TC4 titanium alloy have excellent performance in the aerospace, automotive and medical and other fields has been widely used, is the most widely used as a two-phase α + β type titanium alloy. Scholars of the various properties and processing technology titanium launched a lot of research, however, the system of different forging process on TC4 alloy microstructure and mechanical properties of a few. Researchers studied the β forging, forging close β and (α + β) two-phase region forging affect three different bars forging process on microstructure and mechanical properties of TC4 titanium alloy microstructure, more optimization program with a view to forging process selected for Production TC4 titanium alloy forgings to meet the requirements to provide a reference.

TC4 alloy material size experiment is Φ100mm × 450mm of forging stock, as measured by optical method (α + β) / β transformation point (Tβ) to 990 ℃.

In order to study the influence of the forging process on microstructure and mechanical properties of TC4 Titanium Alloy, forging stock will be divided into three sections, namely conventional forging (Tβ-60 ℃), near-β forging (Tβ-20 ℃) ​​and β forging (Tβ + 40 ℃) process test, deformation of 50%. Forging equipment for 3t free forging hammer. After forging, the process to get through three kinds of forging 900 ℃ × 1h / AC + 600 ℃ × 4h / AC dual heat treatment. After the heat treatment, the TC4 titanium alloy forgings intercept metallographic sample, tensile specimens and impact test specimens, the microstructure was observed under the microscope. Using image analysis software to complete and other microstructure parameters axis α phase content and secondary slice thickness α phase of quantitative statistics. The results showed that:

(1) TC4 alloy forged by α + β, near β and β forging three kinds of forging process after forging, respectively equiaxed structure, mixed structure and lamellar tissue.

(2) α + β forging, strength after forging close β and β forging TC4 titanium alloy bars fairly, but after forging and near α + β β β forging forging relatively high plasticity, but β forging TC4 titanium rod Best toughness. After nearly β forging TC4 titanium alloy bars show the best mechanical properties.

(3) tensile specimen fracture TC4 titanium alloy bars under three kinds of forging process showed a ductile fracture mechanism, α + β forging and near-β forging with deep and evenly distributed equiaxed dimples, and β forging alloy exhibits a more flat and elongated dimples.

China’s aluminum exports will further increase

According to the futures through network “report, by the unexpected yuan depreciation, China the original expansion of exports of aluminum material will receive a further boost. China is the world’s largest producer of aluminum plate.
Goldman said that despite the decline in aluminum prices, many manufacturers have not cut out, partly because of the government’s subsidy policy. At the same time, China’s domestic demand is weak, has stimulated a large number of aluminum exports to the global market. 1-7 this year, China’s aluminum exports rose 28% year on year to record high. And this week the people’s money devaluation, aluminum market will face more supply, because people Za weakness will reduce domestic production costs.
Briggs BNP, an analyst at Paribas Stephen in Paris, said: “it is very clear that bad, which reduces the cost of domestic dollar denominated production.” LME this year three months aluminum fell 14% to $1589 per ton. According to the harbor intelligence data, in the Chinese devaluation people Za 1.9%, the average cost of production per ton of raw 2024 aluminum plate reduction of $12 to $1728. The company expects 10% against the dollar, people’s money, will further reduce the cost of $50 to $1678 per ton.
According to customs data, as of July this year, China exported 2870000 tons of aluminum and aluminum products this year, a record high. Harbor general manager Vazquez Jorge said in a report Tuesday: “the devaluation of the renminbi has restored the competitiveness of China’s exports.” “China’s structural economic growth slowdown, production capacity and production will be the main driving force for the decline in commodity prices.”

Stainless steel bending Notes

1. From unit size, the thicker the plate, the greater the force required to bend, and with the increase in thickness of the device when selecting bending bending force margin should be greater than the average thermal conductivity of stainless steel due to low-carbon steel poor, low elongation, resulting in deformation force required;

2. The next unit size, tensile strength, the smaller the elongation, the greater the force required to bend, bend angle should be larger with respect to the same thickness of the stainless steel bend angle is large, it should be Special attention will be bent or crack, the impact strength of the workpiece;

3. The design of the thickness and the bending radius corresponding to the case, based on experience, expand the size of a bend of the workpiece minus the sum of two right-angled edge thickness, designed to fully meet the accuracy requirements, expand the amount calculated according to the empirical formula simplify the calculation greatly improve production efficiency;

4.The greater the yield strength of the material, the greater the amount of spring back, to get bent parts 90 degree angle, the required pressure of the knife angle must design smaller, austenitic stainless steel in the bend with respect to there is a big deformed steel elastic recovery, so the pressure is relatively steel knife angle is smaller.

Recent steel prices continue to rise

     Recent steel prices continue to rise, construction steel, sheet metal up far beyond the 100 yuan / ton. In terms of profitability, steel profits also increased, since the early low-cost iron ore, steel prices and the recent pull up more than 100 yuan, into the black. But after prices continued to rise, the real needs are being tested. While the steel market rose in April, but the fact of the first quarter trade deficit also unable to change.

     Iron and steel industry in the class of excess industry come today, but also for large-scale investment before paying. Current national economic downturn under pressure, adjusting the economic structure, the economic downturn endurance enhancement, Li Keqiang speech recently said it would introduce some measures to steady growth, but will not introduce large stimulus, more decentralization reforms to activate the internal market economy energy, infrastructure construction, such as maintaining economic stability.

   

Aluminum divided into five categories

1.Brushed aluminum plate:  the process is divided into the main flow of degreasing, Sanders, washed three parts. In aluminum wire drawing process, need to repeatedly use sandpaper to scraped line in aluminum surface, a special anodized coating technology after the aluminum surface can form a coating layer of the metal component containing each of fine silk show clear marks, so that the metal in matte glow fine hair silk sheen.
2.Oxidation Aluminum plate: aluminum plate placed in the appropriate electrolyte solution (such as sulfuric acid, chromic acid, oxalic acid, etc.) as the anode, under certain conditions, and applied current role, were formed aluminum electrolysis. Anodic aluminum oxide, aluminum oxide thin layer formed on the surface to a thickness of 5 to 20 microns, hard anodic oxide films of up to 60 to 200 microns.

what do i need to know when cutting Titanium alloy?

(1) Due to the small elastic modulus of titanium alloys, deformation of the workpiece clamped in the processing of deformation and stress, will reduce the machining accuracy of the workpiece; clamping force of the workpiece installation should not be too large, increase the auxiliary support, if necessary.

(2) All workers, with titanium fixtures or other devices must be clean contact; via cleaned titanium parts, oil or fingerprints to prevent contamination, or future may cause salt (sodium chloride) stress corrosion.

(3) Under normal circumstances when machining titanium, no ignition danger only when trace cutting, small chips cut have ignition combustion phenomenon. To avoid fires, in addition to a large number of pouring coolant should prevent the accumulation of chips in the machine, the tool to be replaced immediately after blunt or reduce the cutting speed, feed rate increased to increase the chip thickness. If the case of fire, you should use talcum powder, limestone powder, dry sand, and other fire-fighting equipment were extinguished, it prohibited the use of carbon tetrachloride, carbon dioxide fire extinguisher, not water, because water can accelerate the burning, and even lead to a hydrogen explosion.
