Applications
- Chemical processing equipment — reactors, columns, storage vessels, linings, and other equipment exposed to highly corrosive media.
- Pressure vessels — especially for corrosive process streams where titanium cladding is used to protect the pressure boundary.
- Heat exchangers and condensers — for chemical plants, refineries, offshore service, and other corrosive heat-transfer duties.
- Oil & gas and petrochemical facilities — process equipment operating in seawater, chloride, or aggressive chemical environments.
- Desalination and seawater service — equipment exposed to chloride-rich environments where titanium’s corrosion resistance is valuable.
- Marine/offshore and power industry equipment — corrosion-resistant process components and cooling equipment.
