How are titanium carbide nanoparticles and nano-TiC powder produced?

Overview of titanium carbide TiC powder

Titanium carbide TiC powder is a crystalline solid with gray metallic luster, hard quality, second only to diamond in hardness, and weaker in magnetic properties. The molecular weight is 59.89, the melting point is 3140 °C, the boiling point is 4820 °C, and the relative density is 4.93. Hardness 9-10. Insoluble in water, soluble in nitric acid and aqua regia. Titanium carbide TiC powder is stable to air below 800 °C, corroded by air above 2000 °C, and can react with pure oxygen at 1150 °C. For the manufacture of cemented carbide, also used as electrodes and abrasives for arc lamps.

How are titanium carbide nanoparticles and nano-TiC powder produced?

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) and graphite powder are used as the main raw materials, and a certain amount of magnesium powder is added as a reducing agent. Under the protection of Ar gas, the powder mixed by the ball mill is calcined under the protection of Ar gas. Titanium carbide and magnesium oxide powder can be generated under the condition of low temperature reduction reaction, and the magnesium oxide can be removed by acid washing with dilute hydrochloric acid, and high-purity nano-titanium carbide particles can be obtained.

Application of titanium carbide TiC powder

1. Titanium carbide powder is used for high temperature thermal spraying materials, welding materials, hard coating materials, military aviation materials, carbides and cermets.

2. Titanium carbide powder is used as an additive in the production of thermistors to improve wear resistance.

3. Titanium carbide powder has a NaCl-type cubic crystal structure. Adding 6% to 30% of TiC to WC-Co cemented carbide forms a TiC-WC solid solution with WC, which can significantly improve red heat, wear resistance, oxidation resistance, Corrosion resistance and other properties, more suitable for processing steel than WC-Co cemented carbide. Alloys such as Ni-Mo can also be used as binders to form tungsten-free cemented carbides, which can improve the turning speed and the precision and finish of the workpiece.

4. Used as tool material and additive for metal bismuth, zinc, cadmium smelting crucible, preparation of semiconductor wear-resistant film, HDD large-capacity storage equipment, is an important part of cemented carbide, used as deoxidizer in steelmaking industry, also Used as cermet, it has the characteristics of high hardness, corrosion resistance and good thermal stability.
