Application
Titanium + Carbon Steels Clad Plates
Titanium-clad carbon steel plates harness carbon steel’s strength and durability along with titanium’s exceptional corrosion resistance. This combination makes them particularly suitable for applications where environmental conditions might be too harsh for carbon steels alone.
Chemical Processing Equipment: In environments where corrosive materials are handled, such as chemical reactors or storage tanks, titanium’s corrosion resistance protects the steel against harsh chemicals, while carbon steel’s strength maintains structural integrity.
Oil and Gas Exploration and Production: Titanium-clad carbon steel is used in the oil and gas industry for piping systems and pressure vessels. These applications benefit from titanium’s resistance to corrosion by saltwater and crude oil, combined with carbon steel’s high strength and toughness.
Desalination Plants: Titanium’s resistance to seawater makes it ideal for desalination plants. Carbon steel cladding strengthens significant structural components operating under high pressures.
Titanium + Nickel-Based Alloys Clad Plates
The combination of titanium and nickel-based alloys in clad plates combines the high corrosion resistance of both materials with the exceptional thermal and mechanical properties of nickel alloys. This makes the clad plates ideal for highly demanding environments.
Aerospace Components: The aerospace industry benefits from titanium-nickel-clad plates’ lightweight and high-strength characteristics for parts exposed to high thermal and mechanical stresses.
Heat Exchangers and Condensers: Utilizing the superior thermal properties of nickel alloys and the corrosion resistance of titanium, these clad plates are perfect for heat exchangers in chemical, oil, and power generation industries, where efficiency and longevity are crucial.
Subsea Pipeline Protection: In offshore oil and gas operations, titanium-nickel-clad plates can protect subsea pipelines from corrosive elements and mechanical wear.
Titanium + Stainless Steels Clad Plates
Titanium-clad stainless steel combines titanium’s corrosion resistance and biocompatibility with stainless steel’s strength and durability. This blend is beneficial in environments requiring corrosion resistance and structural integrity.
Medical Devices and Implants: The biocompatibility of titanium and the strength of stainless steel make this clad material suitable for surgical instruments, implants, and other medical devices.
Food Processing Equipment: Titanium-clad stainless steel is used in the food processing industry, where equipment requires both corrosion resistance for cleanliness and durability for handling large volumes of products.
Architectural and Marine Applications: Titanium-clad stainless steel is an excellent choice for marine environments and architectural applications where aesthetics and longevity are essential. It is resistant to marine corrosion while maintaining the structural benefits of stainless steel.
