Description

Titanium UNS R50400 powder is a commercially pure titanium plate that is the most widely used commercially pure titanium grade. It has an excellent balance of strength and ductility with outstanding corrosion resistance in highly oxidizing and mildly reducing service. Titanium grade 2 powder is a commercially pure titanium grade with good mechanical properties and excellent biocompatibility. Here are some things to think about when buying titanium UNS R50400 powder: *Harder compared to titanium grade 1 *Ductile by nature *High impact strength *Resistance against corrosion *Weldability and formability are great *Combines ductility with excellent resistance to corrosion and tensile strength *Has the best strength to weight ratio of any corrosion resistant material *Used for heat exchangers, condenser tubing and bleaching plants in paper industry, offshore oil installation water pipe lines *Possess high strength, good formability and weldability, and ductility Here are some properties of titanium grade 2 powder: *Yield strength: Compares to that of austenitic stainless steels *Corrosion resistance: Increased by interstitially solved elements in small quantities *Strength: Moderate strength with a typical yield strength of 352 MPa *Ductility: Good ductility and formability *Weldability: Excellent weldability *Formability: Similar corrosion resistance and formability to Grade 1 titanium, but with higher strength Titanium's high cost comes down to a few basic characteristics, including: *High melting temperature: it melts at 3300 degrees F *Iron melts at 2500–2800 deg, so more energy is required *There are fewer materials to deal with those higher temperatures when processing (can't use steel molds) Titanium UNS R50400 (grade 2) powder is used extensively in the medical field for a wide range of applications. It can also be machined, shot-peened, and polished in as-built and heat treated states.
