Overview of Titanium Carbide The molecular weight of Titanium carbide (TiC) is 59.89. Gray metal lattice solids with a face-centered cubic structure. Melting point 31140+90, boiling temperature 4820, relative densities 4.93. Hardness is greater that 9. Water insoluble, but soluble with nitric and aqua regia. It is stable at 800 and 2000 degrees Celsius. It reacts with pure O2 when heated to 1150C.
Titanium carbide, a metal-gray crystal with an iron-gray luster, has many similar metal characteristics, including a high melting point, high boiling point, hardness that is only second to diamond. The thermal conductivity and the electrical conductivity are also excellent, while superconductivity can be seen at low temperatures. This substance can be used to make cermet, heat resistant alloy, anti wear material, high temperature radiation materials and other high-temperature devices.
Ceramic material based on titanium carbide
The titanium carbide is brittle. It cannot be used in engineering as a component. Composite materials are often used for reinforcement.
Titanium carbide is a ceramic that belongs to metal or alloy.
Ceramics made from titanium carbide are typical of transition metal carbides. TiC’s unique properties are due to its bonding, which is a combination of ionic covalent and metal bonds in a single crystal structure. TiC has many unique properties that are determined by its crystal structure, including high hardness, melting point, wear resistant and electrical conductivity.
Property of titanium carbide
Theoretically TiC contains 20.05 percent carbon, and it is a metallic gray. It is a chemically stable material that is almost inert against hydrochloric, sulfuric and hydrochloric acids. In oxidizing chemical solutions, like aqua regia, nitric and hydrofluoric acids, TiC dissolves readily. It is soluble in alkaline oxidation melts. In a nitrogenous environment, nitrogen is formed above -1500degC. TiC is corroded at high temperature by chlorine gas and easily oxidizes in air.
The elastic modulus for TiC is 309 706 MPa. The material sintered from 2600 to 3000 has a fracture modulus between 499.8 and 843.2 MPa. Thermal modulus at fracture ranges 107.78mph to 116.96mpa, and from 54.4mpato 63.92mpaat 2200. The melting point of TiC is 3160 degrees C. At room temperature, the resistivity is 180 to 250 It is a good conductor for high temperatures. The thermal coefficient of expansion between 593degC and room temperature is 4.12×10-6/degF. Thermal conductivity is 0.04 CAL/cmS/degC.
Titan carbide ceramics
1. Multiphase materials Titanium carbide is a super hard material. It can be produced from raw materials such as TiN and WC. Al2O3 or other materials are also used to make TiC. This material has a high melting temperature, high hardness with excellent chemical stability. It’s the best choice for wear-resistant tools. Due to its high oxidation resistant and lack of crescent wear, titanium carbide is commonly used for cutting carbon steel and high-speed conductor wheel. The use of multiphase ceramic cutting tool containing titanium carbide is widespread.
2. Coating material As a surface coat, titanium carbide has a high wear resistance. The surface of diamonds can be coated with some strong carbides by using chemical or physical methods. These metals and alloys react at high temperatures with the carbon on diamond surfaces to form stable metals carbides. These carbides are not only able to bond with diamonds but can also permeate matrix metals. The tool’s life can be extended by up to three times with titanium carbide film.
3. Research on the nuclear fusion power reactor. After chemical heat treatments, titanium carbide coating and (TiN+TiC), composite coating material produce tritium-resistant layer on the surface.
4. In addition to that, The ceramics made from titanium carbide are good for optical purposes.
