Amazing crystalline titanium

Titanium crystal is a special texture formed on the surface of titanium alloy, which looks like blooming flowers or snowflakes, so it is also known as ice crystal titanium, titanium ice flower. Its essence is the phase transition of titanium alloy, titanium alloy in the temperature between 850~1020℃, will turn to β phase transition, the specific temperature is related to alloying composition and impurity content, when the temperature exceeds the phase transition point, the original β grain will grow rapidly to form coarse crystals, observation scale will reach 200μm or more. In simple terms, crystallization is formed by controlling the temperature, pressure and cooling of titanium alloy.

The treatment methods of titanium crystallization mainly include:
Electrolysis: a commonly used titanium ice flower treatment method, using ions in the electrolyte under the action of electric field to form crystalline texture on the surface of titanium alloy.

Chemical method: by means of specific solution corrosion or deposition.

Anodizing: to achieve the surface of titanium metal coloring and the formation of a dense film, increase mechanical properties, wear resistance.

Sandblasting process: combined with etching and anodic oxidation, to achieve the surface effect of titanium alloy treatment.

Beautiful "arts and crafts"

Crystalline titanium products first entered people's field of vision in 2010, when Japan's SUS gallery named the cup they produced using the crystalline titanium process TITANESS Tumbler as a national gift, which made the crystalline titanium products popular, at that time, the crystalline titanium products imported from abroad were very expensive.

This crystalline titanium product has a high appearance level and a memory point, is unique, and has a high price, and has the identity of handicrafts in addition to making supplies. Is the so-called demand there is a market, there is a price on the product, after the research of China's titanium industry staff, China has mastered this technology around 2017, since then, on a variety of crystalline titanium products emerge in endlessly.
