What is the difference between TA2 and TC4 titanium alloy balls?
The core difference between TA2 and TC4 titanium alloy balls is that TA2 is industrial pure titanium with good corrosion resistance but lower strength; TC4 is a titanium alloy with high strength but slightly lower corrosion resistance.
1. Composition and strength: TA2 titanium content ≥ 99%, tensile strength of about 500MPa; TC4 contains aluminum and vanadium, and its tensile strength can reach 950-1100MPa, which is more than twice that of TA2.
2. Corrosion resistance: TA2 performs better in highly corrosive environments such as chemical and marine environments; TC4 has better corrosion resistance in reducing acids such as sulfuric acid.
3. Processing and application: TA2 is easier to process and weld, suitable for making standard parts; TC4 is difficult to process and is mainly used in fields such as aviation and healthcare that require high strength.
