Is titanium carbide hard

What is titanium carbide?

Titanium carbide is an iron-gray crystal with a metal luster coming from NaCl-type straightforward cubic structure, with a lattice constant of 0.4329 nm as well as a space group of Fm3m. Carbon atoms are equivalent to titanium atoms in the lattice setting, as well as solid covalent bonds bond TiC atoms. Tic has some characteristics comparable to steels, such as high melting factor, boiling point, and also firmness, the hardness is 2nd just to diamond, as well as it has good thermal and electrical conductivity, also revealing superconductivity at shallow temperature levels.

Nano-titanium carbide is utilized in aerospace parts. It has a melting point above 3000 ℃, great high-temperature toughness, compatibility with tungsten, comparable thermal development coefficient, and also a lot lower thickness than tungsten.

Titanium carbide is widely used in making wear-resistant materials, reducing devices, molds, thawing metal crucibles, and also numerous other areas. Clear titanium carbide porcelains are additionally suitable optical products. And titanium carbide abrasive in the abrasive as well as unpleasant market is an excellent product to change standard abrasive products such as alumina, silicon carbide, boron carbide, and chromium oxide. The grinding ability of nano titanium carbide is comparable to that of synthetic diamonds, which substantially lowers the price. It has actually been widely made use of in the USA, Japan, Russia, as well as other nations. Products such as unpleasant, grinding wheels, and also grinding paste constructed from nano titanium carbide can considerably improve grinding efficiency, accuracy, and surface smoothness.

Nano-titanium carbide foam ceramic: As a filter, foam ceramic can successfully get rid of additions in different liquids, and its filtering system is agitation and also adsorption. The chemical stability of filter materials is needed, specifically the filters made use of in the metallurgical industry require a high melting point, so a lot of these materials are oxides as well as to adjust to the purification of molten steel, the improvement of thermal shock resistance is primarily pursued. Nano-titanium carbide foam porcelains have higher stamina, firmness, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, heat resistance, and corrosion resistance than oxide foam ceramics.

TiC is light gray, cubic, insoluble in water, and also has high chemical security. It hardly reacts with hydrochloric acid as well as sulfuric acid, but it can be liquified in aqua regia, nitric acid, hydrofluoric acid, and alkaline oxide option.

Taking titanium dioxide as well as carbon black as resources, high-purity titanium dioxide and also carbon black are extensively blended in proportion, the dry powder combination is pressed as well as formed, and after that minimized in a horizontal carbon tube heating system or an upright carbon tube furnace at 1900-2300 ℃ in a hydrogen environment to acquire large TiC, and after that pulverized to obtain titanium carbide powder products. Or taking sponge titanium and also carbon black as resources, completely mixing sponge titanium (or titanium scrap recouped from titanium alloy and carbide strong remedy) and also carbon black in proportion, and also heating to 1500-1700 ℃ in high-purity hydrogen gas stream for reaction to obtain titanium carbide.
