Performance comparison of titanium alloy and other alloys
| Performance Dimension | Titanium Alloy | Steel | Aluminum Alloy | Magnesium Alloy |
| Density | Low | High | Lower | Lowest |
| Strength | High | High | Middle | Low |
| Corrosion resistance | Excellent | General (need anti-corrosion treatment) | Better (under certain circumstances) | Poor |
| High temperature performance | Good (can adapt to medium and high temperature environment) | Medium (easy to soften at high temperature) | Poor (easy to deform at high temperature) | Poor |
| Applicable scenarios | High-end manufacturing, precision components | Structural parts, load-bearing components | Lightweight general components | Ultra-lightweight non-load-bearing components |
Difficulties in titanium alloy casting
Although titanium alloy has excellent performance, there are many challenges in the casting process:
- High melting point: The melting point of titanium alloy is much higher than that of ordinary alloys. It has extremely high requirements for furnace temperature control and mold high temperature resistance.
- Easy to oxidize: Titanium easily reacts with oxygen, nitrogen and other elements in the air at high temperatures. It forms brittle compounds. It affects the performance of castings.
- Poor fluidity: The fluidity is low in the molten state. It is difficult to fill complex cavities. It is easy to have defects such as insufficient pouring and cold shut.
Faced with these difficulties, QD can effectively reduce the risk of oxidation, improve metal fluidity, and ensure stable casting quality by optimizing the melting environment (such as vacuum or inert gas protection), improving mold design, and adjusting casting process parameters.

FAQ
1. What are the core advantages of titanium alloy castings compared to steel or aluminum alloy castings?
High strength, low density (lightweight), excellent corrosion resistance. And it can still maintain stable performance in high temperature environments.
2. In what fields are titanium alloy castings mainly used?
Aerospace, medical equipment, automotive industry, marine engineering, etc.
3. What are the difficulties in the production of titanium alloy castings? How do you avoid it?
The difficulty lies in the high chemical activity of titanium and its easy oxidation; casting is prone to shrinkage and cracks. We reduce oxidation through vacuum melting + inert gas protection. Use precision mold design and stepped cooling to control defects.
4. How does JC Casting improve the surface quality of titanium alloy castings?
Use “sandblasting pretreatment + precision polishing + anodizing” process. It not only improves the finish, but also forms a dense oxide film. Enhance wear resistance and corrosion resistance.
5. What factors affect the service life of titanium alloy castings?
The use environment (such as humidity, pH), load intensity, regular maintenance, and internal defects during casting.
