The benefits of adding seamless titanium wire in the steelmaking process

Time : 25/06/2024

Adding various metallic and non-metallic elements to iron and steel can create various properties. Titanium has a low specific gravity of only 4.5 grams per milliliter, a high melting point of 1690 ℃, and is prone to oxidation. It burns a lot on the steel surface, resulting in significant losses and difficulty in controlling its content. Moreover, the production process of individual metals is complex, with high production costs and high prices. Therefore, it is not suitable to directly add pure metal and non-metallic monomer states to the steel liquid during steelmaking.

For this reason, metallurgical workers have developed alloys of these elements and iron, known as "ferroalloys". Titanium and iron alloys have a melting point similar to steel, a specific gravity similar to steel, and are not easily oxidized. Their production process is simpler than producing pure metals and non-metals, and their production cost is much lower than that of pure single metals and non-metals. They are particularly suitable for use in steelmaking and the production of various high-tech materials. Therefore, ferroalloys have become important materials in steelmaking and the new materials industry.

Seamless titanium wire is made by grinding titanium iron alloy into powder and then wrapping and compacting it with steel strips, which can penetrate deeper into the bottom of the molten steel, making the reflection of the molten steel more complete and achieving the effect of improving yield and reducing costs!
