Titanium clad
copper is a metallic material coated with a titanium layer of a
certain thickness (generally 1.0~1.2mm) on a copper rod. It is the main
component of the metal anode. The cross section is strictly according to
client’s requirement. On the basis of its cross-sectional geometry, it can be
divided into round, flat, square, and rectangular titanium-clad copper, and so
on.
This composite titanium material combines
the excellent electrical conductivity of copper and the excellent corrosion
resistance of titanium. It can be used as a conductor carrying large
currents under relatively corrosive working conditions while ensuring the
uniformity of current density and eliminating the pollution of electrolyte
caused by the corrosion of copper conductors. Therefore,
it has become the main component of the production of metal anode
electrolyzers.
The Production
Methods Of The Titanium Clad Coppers:The common production methods of titanium-clad copper mainly include
the following: explosion method, hot extrusion method, hot extrusion
and stretching method, explosion and rolling method.
The explosive
method is to first put a copper rod into a titanium tube, place explosives
evenly around the titanium tube, use a detonator to detonate the explosive, and
then make the copper rod and the titanium tube form a composite under the
action of explosive force.
The explosion
rolling method is to use a large size titanium tube and copper rod to make
billet by explosion method and then the titanium-clad copper is made by
the groove rolling method. Compared with the explosive method, this
method has higher efficiency and lower cost.
