Application of Titanium Foil in Outdoor Sports Equipment

Nov 10, 2021

Titanium foil is a titanium plate, tape, roll or sheet with a thickness of 0.1 mm or less. Another indicator for evaluating the thickness of titanium foil is the weight per unit area, such as g/m or oz/fi. The larger the value, the greater the thickness. The width of the titanium foil is cut according to the user's requirements. However, the greater the width during manufacturing, the higher the productivity. The length of the roll body determines the maximum width of the rolled foil. The wider, thinner, and harder the rolled piece, the harder it is to roll. Titanium and alloy foils are mainly used in electronics, aerospace, instrumentation, and other sectors.

Titanium has six major characteristics:

1. High strength: The strength/density ratio of titanium is better than other metals. Titanium can be used to make components with high strength, good rigidity, and lightweight. Titanium is used in aircraft engines, frames, skins, fasteners, and landing gear.

2. Anti-corrosion: Compared with stainless steel, titanium alloy has a better corrosion effect in humid air and seawater. Titanium has great resistance to pitting corrosion, acid corrosion, and stress corrosion. Titanium is resistant to corrosion by alkalis, chlorides, chlorinated organics, sulfuric acid, and nitric acid.

3. High-temperature resistance: The application temperature of titanium is higher than that of aluminum alloy. Titanium can work for a long time at 450-500℃. Titanium alloy still has high strength at a working temperature of 150-500℃. The working temperature of titanium can reach 500℃.

4. Low-temperature resistance: Titanium alloy still has its mechanical properties when working under low or ultra-low temperature conditions. Titanium alloys with low-temperature resistance and extremely low gaps still have good ductility. Therefore, titanium alloys are a good low-temperature structural material.

5. Eco-friendly metal: The thermal conductivity of titanium is lower than that of carbon steel or copper, but titanium has very good corrosion resistance. Therefore, the thickness of titanium can be greatly reduced, and the heat exchange mode is dropwise condensation between titanium and steam. This mode reduces the heat transfer resistance, and there is no fouling on the titanium surface so that the thermal conductivity of titanium is better.

6. Good thermal conductivity: Titanium is a non-magnetic metal and cannot be magnetized in a large magnetic field. It is also non-toxic and compatible with blood. Therefore, titanium has been used in the medical field.

The application of titanium in outdoor sports equipment mainly includes camping stove windshield, ultra-thin titanium windshield screen, titanium stove, outdoor ultra-light foldable titanium stove, titanium foil chimney, titanium foil windscreen, etc.
