Titanium has a low specific gravity, only 4.5 g/ml, and a high melting point of 1690°C. It is also easy to oxidize. A lot of it is oxidized and burned on the molten steel surface. The loss is too great, and it is difficult to control the content. And the single metal production process It is complex, has high production costs, is expensive, etc., so it is not suitable to directly add pure metals and non-metallic monomers into the molten steel during steelmaking. For this reason, metallurgists have researched and produced alloys of these elements and iron, which are called "iron alloys".
The melting point of the alloy of titanium and iron is close to that of steel, the specific gravity is similar to that of steel, and it is not easily oxidized. Its production process is simpler than the production of pure metals and non-metals, and the production cost is much lower than that of pure single metals and non-metals. The price Low, especially suitable for use in steelmaking and production of various high-tech materials. Therefore, ferroalloys have become important materials in steelmaking and new materials industries.
The current ferroalloy varieties include dozens of binary and multicomponent ferroalloys, among which ZhenAn International's ferrotitanium is one of the most commonly used binary ferroalloys. At present, titanium ferroalloy is an important raw material for the production of chain steel, anchor chain steel, shipbuilding steel, stainless steel, welding rods, electronics, and military products.
