Why are titanium alloy screws so popular? That's because titanium is an active element that can form a thin layer of TiO2 oxide film on the surface of the material when exposed to air. This oxide film has a high degree of inertness and can effectively prevent further oxidation and corrosion, ensuring good biocompatibility of titanium; In terms of mechanical properties, titanium has a low density, high mechanical strength, and an elastic modulus closer to bone tissue compared to other medical metals. This is why titanium has ideal biomechanical compatibility. In addition, it also has good mechanical processing performance, making it easy to process and shape.
In recent years, the application of titanium alloy screw fasteners has been extremely widespread. Among them, titanium alloy screws are increasingly recognized in the market due to their obvious advantages. They have high strength, single body, single-sided assembly connection, and reusability. With the advancement of world industrial technology and society, titanium alloy screws will have a greater development and wider use.
Therefore, the advantages of titanium alloy screws include the following aspects
1. Higher than strength. The density of titanium is 4.51g/cm?, Higher than aluminum but lower than steel, copper, and nickel, but with much higher strength than other metals. The screws made of titanium alloy are lightweight and sturdy.
2. Good corrosion resistance. Titanium and titanium alloys are stable in many media, and titanium alloy screws are suitable for various corrosive environments.
3. Good heat resistance and low temperature resistance. Titanium alloy screws can work normally in high temperature environments of 600 ℃ and low temperature environments of minus 250 ℃, and can maintain their own shape without changing.
4. Non magnetic and non-toxic. Titanium is a non-magnetic metal that will not be magnetized even in high magnetic fields; Not only non-toxic, but also has good compatibility with the human body.
5. Strong anti damping performance. After being subjected to mechanical and electrical vibrations, titanium has the longest self vibration attenuation time compared to steel and copper metals. This performance can be used as a tuning fork, a vibrating element for medical ultrasonic crushers, and a vibrating film for high-end audio speakers.
With the development of the titanium industry, titanium alloy screws will no longer be limited to high-end precision industries, but will enter people's daily lives more deeply. Therefore, the development space of titanium alloy screws is broad and the future is promising!
