Material description
The material 3.7035 is an unalloyed pure titanium that belongs to the group of reactive metals. It is characterised by high corrosion resistance, which is caused by a dense and firmly adhering oxide layer. If this layer is damaged, oxygen causes new oxide to form.
Titanium Grade 2 is stable in:
- Brackish and sea water
- chlorine oxide
- hypochlorites
- hypochlorates
- humid chlorine gas
- sulphides
- nitric acid
- low-melting metals
Titanium grade 2 also offers good mechanical properties with a low specific weight. In addition to the favourable density/strength ratio, the material has high ductility and good creep strength.
AN OVERVIEW OF THE PROPERTIES OF 3.7035:
- Good mechanical properties
- Good notched impact strength
- Very good elongation and strength ratio
- Very good oxidation resistance in reduced and strongly oxidising media
- Good resistance to salt water
Applications
- Heat exchanger components for use with seawater and brackish water
- Electroplating
- Components in flue gas desulphurisation systems
- Medical technology
- Aerospace industry
- Motorsport
- Sports and leisure industry (e.g. boat accessories, bicycle construction, mountaineering equipment, etc.)
