What is titanium carbide used for?

Titanium carbide overview

The chemical formula of titanium carbide is TiC. The molecular weight of titanium carbide is 59.89. Gray metallic face-centered cubic lattice solid. The melting point of titanium carbide is 3140±90℃. Titanium carbide has a boiling point of 4820°C and a relative density of 4.93. The hardness is greater than 9 Mohs.

Titanium carbide is insoluble in water, soluble in nitric acid and aqua regia. It is stable to air when it is lower than 800℃, corroded by air when it is higher than 2000℃, and can react with pure O2 at 1150℃.

Hardness 9-10. Insoluble in water, soluble in nitric acid and aqua regia. It is stable to air when it is lower than 800℃, corroded by air when it is higher than 2000℃, and can react with pure oxygen at 1150℃. For the manufacture of cemented carbide, also used as electrodes and abrasives for arc lamps.

What is titanium carbide used for?

Titanium carbide is used to make cemented carbide, and as electrodes and abrasives for arc lamps.

Titanium carbide is used to prepare cermets. Titanium carbide is often used to machine steel at high cutting speeds due to its wear resistance and high hardness. It is also used as a wear-resistant surface coating for metal parts such as tool drills and watch mechanisms. Titanium carbide is also used as a thermal insulation coating for spacecraft reentry.

Titanium carbide is an important component of cemented carbide and is used as a deoxidizer in the steelmaking industry. For example, 7075 aluminum alloy (AA7075) is almost as strong as steel, but only 1/3 the weight. Large alloy parts can be welded without cracking due to phase segregation using the AA7075 electrode with TiC nanoparticles.
