Titanium concentrate TiO2 content ≥48%

Product information

The major components of titanium concentrate include titanium oxide, iron oxide, ferrous oxide, trace elements of phosphorus, sulfur, magnesium, and calcium. It is usually powdery, black, with a size of 200 mesh or less.

The approximate world reserves of titanium concentrates are 700 million tons, while China's reserves stand approximately at 200 million tons, approaching about 28.57% of the world's total reserves. Many years ago, China has been on top among the other countries. The reserving area includes Panzhihua, where it occupies the largest reserves accounting for 48% of the nation, whereas Yunnan comes in second place with 20%. The considerable price of titanium concentrate is the reason for a high price of titanium slag, which catalyzes an increase in titanium concentrate prices.

Titanium concentrate differs from high-titanium slag or titanium dioxide in that it is miserably particular about its application field: aerospace, shipbuilding, military, metallurgy, chemical industry, machinery, power projects, desalination, environmental protection-all the way to medicine. High-strong titanium alloys will satisfy turbine engine components or missile-rocket nozzles. The high oxidation resistance, low temperature, toughness, and fracture toughness of the alloys are worth noticing. Coatings may include titanium and titanium products, oxides, and novel alloys. These metals are often considered third in development in line with iron and aluminum phase metals and hence classified as strategic metals. 

TiO2 ≥ 48%
Fe2O3 ≤ 5%
Cr2O3 ≤ 0.06%
P2O5 ≤ 0.05%
SiO2 ≤ 1.2%
Ga2O3 ≤ 0.3%
MgO ≤ 0.5

Advantage

1. High grade TiO2, with a yield of more than 99%;
2. Fe2O3 as low as 5%, high FeO, easy acid hydrolysis, less acid consumption, less waste acid, and less reducing agent usage, which not only reduces costs but also achieves quasi-clean production;
3. Low content of impurities such as chromium, sulfur, phosphorus, silicon, calcium, and magnesium, which is conducive to improving the quality of titanium dioxide products;
4. Large specific surface area, and basically zero moisture content.
