Titanium Nitride (TiN)-Granules

Characteristic




Titanium nitride (TiN; sometimes known as Tinite) is an extremely hard ceramic material, often used as a coating on titanium alloys, steel, carbide, and aluminium components to improve the substrate's surface properties.

Application




Titanium nitride (TiN) is a fairly stable compound that does not react with metals such as iron, chromium, calcium and magnesium at high temperature, and TiN crucible does not react with acidic slag and alkaline slag in the atmosphere of CO and N2. Therefore, TiN crucible is an excellent container for studying the interaction between molten steel and some elements.TiN loses nitrogen by heating in a vacuum to produce titanium nitride with lower nitrogen content.




TiN has attractive gold color, high melting point, high hardness, good chemical stability, and metal wetting small structural materials, and has high conductivity and superconductivity, can be applied to high temperature structural materials and superconducting materials.
