As a new corrosion-resistant material,
titanium has only been used in my country's metallurgical industry, especially the hydrometallurgical industry for more than 20 years, but it has achieved great success and achieved remarkable social and economic benefits.
The non-ferrous metallurgy industry took the lead in using titanium in electrolytic copper, electrolytic nickel and lead-zinc smelting, which solved the corrosion problem that seriously plagued the production and development of enterprises. The successful application of titanium and titanium equipment in these enterprises has also greatly promoted my country's titanium industry. Use for civilian promotion.
Since the 1980s, many domestic hydrometallurgical enterprises have begun to use titanium materials in technological transformation. The use of these new technologies and new equipment has brought the equipment of my country's non-ferrous hydrometallurgy industry closer to the world's advanced level.
The main advantages of titanium as a seed plate in the electric copper and electric nickel industries are:
(1) The oxide film on the titanium surface protects the titanium from being corroded by the electrolyte, and does not pollute the electrolyte.
(2) It is extremely easy to peel off, reducing labor intensity.
(3) Yield increased by more than 30%.
(4) The electrical copper crystal structure is dense and the surface is smooth.
(5) It is not easy to break the circuit and burn the board.
(6) The service life exceeds 30 years.
