Titanium Grade 7 is an advanced titanium alloy with excellent welding and fabrication properties. Its mechanical and physical properties are similar to those of Titanium Grade 2, but with one significant difference: the addition of 0.12% to 0.25% palladium.
This small but crucial element significantly enhances corrosion resistance, making Titanium Grade 7 perform exceptionally well in aggressive chemical environments.
Titanium Grade 7 is renowned for having the best corrosion resistance among all titanium alloys. Like other types of titanium, it forms a natural, self-healing oxide film that provides protection against corrosion. If damaged, this layer immediately repairs itself, ensuring the material remains resistant to deterioration in seawater and natural environments.
Thanks to the addition of palladium, Titanium Grade 7 is even more resistant to corrosion than Grade 2, particularly in acidic and chloride-containing environments. This makes the material especially suitable for applications requiring prolonged exposure to aggressive chemicals or extreme conditions. Despite its enhanced resistance, Titanium Grade 7 maintains excellent weldability and is easy to process and fabricate.
Due to its exceptional corrosion resistance, Titanium Grade 7 is widely used in the chemical industry, where it withstands strong acids and corrosive substances. It is also applied in the pharmaceutical sector for equipment and components that are continuously in contact with aggressive chemicals.
Additionally, Titanium Grade 7 is used in heat exchangers, pipelines, and valves, where it must endure extreme temperatures and chemical exposure. The combination of durability, corrosion resistance, and workability makes this material ideal for critical industrial applications.
Titanium Grade 7 is the best choice for environments requiring maximum corrosion resistance without compromising on strength or workability.
