Preparation method of titanium diboride

Overview of titanium diboride

Titanium diboride powder is gray or gray-black, has a hexagonal (AlB2) crystal structure, a melting point of 2980°C, high hardness, the oxidation resistance temperature of titanium dioxide in the air can reach 1000°C, and it is stable in HCl and HF acid .

Titanium diboride (TiB2) is an extremely hard ceramic with excellent mutation, oxidation stability and wear resistance. Titanium diboride (TiB2) is an extremely hard ceramic used for special ballistic armor, for example. Titanium diboride TiB2 powder properties: 1. High melting point 2. High hardness 3. Wear resistance 4. Acid resistance 5. Excellent electrical conductivity. 6. High thermal conductivity.

Titanium boride (TiB2) is the most stable compound of boron and titanium. It has a C32 structure and is combined in the form of valence bonds. It is a metalloid compound of the hexagonal system. The structural parameters of the complete crystal are: a is 0.3028 nm, and C is 0.3228 nm. In the crystal structure, the plane of boron atoms and the plane of titanium atoms alternately form a two-dimensional network structure, where B is covalently bonded with the other three Bs, and the excess electrons form a large π bond. The graphite-like layered structure of boron atoms and Ti outer layer electrons determines the good conductivity and metallic luster of TiB2, and the Ti-B bond between the surface of boron atoms and the surface of titanium atoms determines the high hardness and brittleness of the material .

The metal borides used in many compounds have better high temperature performance than metal carbides. For example, diboride (TiB2) cermet products are more suitable for use under high temperature and highly corrosive working conditions than titanium carbide (TiC) and tungsten carbide (WC) cermet products. Titanium diboride powder is gray (or gray-black). It ranks sixth among the top ten materials with the highest melting point in the world, and its anti-oxidation temperature in the air can reach 1100°C. As a new type of ceramic material, it not only has a high melting point, but also has high physical and chemical properties, high hardness, chemical stability at high temperature, electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, and mechanical and mechanical properties are very good.

Application of titanium diboride

1. Conductive ceramic materials. It is one of the main raw materials of vacuum coating evaporator.

2. Ceramic cutting tools and molds. We can manufacture finishing tools, drawing dies, extrusion dies, sandblasting nozzles, sealing elements, etc.

3. Composite ceramic materials. It can be used as an important component of multi-component composite materials, combined with TiC, TiN, SiC and other materials to form composite materials to produce various high-temperature resistant parts and functional parts, such as high-temperature crucibles and engine parts. It is also one of the best materials for protective armor.

4. Cathode paint for aluminum electrolytic cell. Due to the good wettability of TiB2 and metal aluminum liquid, TiB2 can be used as the cathode coating of aluminum electrolytic cell, which can reduce the power consumption of aluminum electrolytic cell and extend its life.

5. It is made of PtC heating ceramic materials and flexible PtC materials. It has the characteristics of safety, energy saving, reliability, easy processing and molding. It is one of various electric heating materials and a substitute for high-tech products.

6 is a good reinforcing agent for Al, Fe, Cu and other metal materials.
