What is titanium stainless steel sheet
Stainless steel is an alloy of iron with a certain percentage of chromium, nickel, and other microelements. The addition of these elements gives the material a strong resistance to rust and corrosion.
Titanium stainless steel sheet is created by plating a layer of titanium alloy nitride on the surface of the stainless sheet, adding a variety of surface colors while improving the corrosion resistance.
How is titanium stainless steel sheet made
Begin by mirror polishing or brushing the surface of stainless steel sheets. Next, after washing, hang the sheets on the PVD(physical vapor deposition) machine. Finally, titanium stainless steel plates with a variety of colors are ready and need to be protected with a layer of PVC or laser film.
What is PVD coating?
The polished/brushed and cleaned stainless steel sheets are placed in a vacuum chamber and heated to extreme temperatures. After the gas is injected into the vacuum furnace, the pre-placed titanium blocks are vaporized under high temperatures.
Then titanium nitride is applied to the sheets in a thin layer via vaporization. The color of a titanium nitride coating is determined by the gas used. The gases used produce various hues. Argon, for example, produces a blue color, whereas nitrogen generates a yellow one.
What are the different types
There are many different types of titanium sheets on the market right now, and the following six are among the most commonly used.
Mirror titanium gold: mirror polished + gold colored
Mirror titanium black: mirror polished + black colored
Mirror titanium rose gold: mirror polished + rose gold colored
Brushed titanium gold: hairline/satin finish + gold colored
Brushed titanium black: hairline/satin finish + black colored
Brushed titanium rose gold: hairline/satin finish + rose gold colored
What are the Properties
Let’s look at some of the most important properties of this material.
More durable
Titanium stainless steel sheet is more durable than common uncolored stainless steel sheets because the titanium layer provides antioxidant protection.
More color options
It is also more color choices because the combination of different gases and vaporized titanium blocks can create different colors on the stainless steel sheets.
More Eco-friendly
Titanium stainless steel sheet is more Eco-friendly than electroplating or powder coating because they cause air or water pollution.
More aesthetical
The surface of the material has a bright, reflective finish that is available in a variety of colors. This makes it perfect for use in decorative applications where appearance is important.
Ease of maintenance
Titanium stainless steel sheet is easy to maintain and clean. Simply wipe the surface with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris.
What are the applications
Now that we know some of the most important properties of titanium stainless steel sheets, let’s look at some of its common applications.
Architecture
Titanium stainless steel sheet is often used in architecture because of its unique appearance and durability. It can be used for everything from exterior cladding to interior decoration, such as wall covering, ceiling panels, column covers, and so on.
Metal products
They are widely used in various indoor and outdoor metal products, such as hardware products, hotel furniture products, bathroom products, kitchen products, profile products, etc.
How to select the correct materials for your project
When it comes to choosing the right materials for your project, there are many factors to consider.
Stainless Steel Grade
Grade 304 is a very cost-effective stainless steel material. It’s the most commonly used with excellent corrosion resistance and heat tolerance of up to 3000 degrees Fahrenheit. A higher grade of stainless steel, such as Grade 316, is an alternative if you need a more robust grade. This grade is more expensive than Grade 304, but it is also more corrosion-resistant and heat-resistant.
Size and Thickness
Now that you’ve chosen your grade of stainless steel, it’s time to select the size and thickness.
Width:
1000 / 1219 / 1500mm or Custom-made
Length:
2438 / 3048 / 4000mm or Custom-made
Thickness:
0.7mm~2.0mm are more recommended
Because we must manually lift the sheet into the vacuum furnace and bulky stainless sheets can not be handled, the titanium sheet is limited to 2mm in thickness.
