Recently, Dr. Won zongyou of the Korea institute of materials research (KIMS) and Dr. Hong seong-kyu of the Korea academy of standards (KRISS) industrial application measurement headquarters jointly announced the successful development of a pure
titanium plate rolling technology that can improve both strength and formability.
The pure titanium plate rolled by the technology can be used to make heat exchangers and is widely used in power stations, shipbuilding and other industries. It is expected to improve efficiency and save manufacturing costs at the same time.
Yuan zongyou said from the light, high strength, high formability and raw material savings, pure titanium rolling technology can be fully satisfied, in the future application, is expected to produce great value and effect, in addition to the traditional plate heat exchanger, but also can play its role in more fields.
According to hong chengjiu, twin phenomenon is very common and will fracture after rolling. Therefore, it has not been applied so far. The technology developed this time can inhibit the fracture of twins, and if it is really applied, the properties of the material can be improved more effectively.
