titanium tetrachloride
Titanium tetrachloride is an intermediate product in the process of manufacturing titanium sponge. We produce titanium tetrachloride products under strict quality control and ship in appropriate containers for the type of transportation used for shipment. They are used as feedstock for the manufacture of polyolefins (polypropylene, polyethylene) or as feedstock for the manufacture of special titanium oxides.
Main applications
| £±¡¥Metalworking | Used worldwide as a material for manufacturing titanium metal. |
| £²¡¥Pigments | Used as the main component in special titanium oxides such as chloride-process titanium oxides and ultrafine particle titanium oxides. |
| £³¡¥Plastics | Used as a catalyst in the manufacture of plastics such as PP (polypropylene), HDPE (high density polyethylene), IR (isoprene rubber), etc. |
| £´¡¥Electronics | Used as a material in the manufacture of electronic components including TiO2, BaTiO3, etc. |
| £µ¡¥Deposition material | Used as a CVD (chemical vapor deposition) material in the manufacture of TiN, TiC, TiB2. |
| £¶¡¥Others | Used as a material for manufacturing organic titanium compounds. |

- Titanium tetrachloride is highly reactive with water. When it comes into contact with moisture it undergoes hydrolysis, emitting large amounts of fumes and heat, and forming hydrochloric acid and titanium hydroxychlorides characterized as Ti(OH)mCln.
- Titanium tetrachloride is a powerful solvent, and mixes fully with or reacts with many other solvents.
- Pure titanium tetrachloride has virtually no corrosive effect on iron at ordinary temperatures, but it is very corrosive at 200¡î or higher.
