CLADDING TECHNIQUES: EXPLOSIVE BONDING METHOD
Our proprietary explosive bonding technology creates a metallurgical bond between titanium and steel through controlled detonation. This advanced process:
- Creates atomic-level bonding without heat-affected zones
- Preserves the corrosion resistance of titanium
- Maintains the structural strength of steel
- Allows for thicker cladding layers than roll bonding
- Enables bonding of dissimilar metals with minimal intermetallic formation
The process involves precisely placing explosive materials between the titanium and steel layers, then detonating under controlled conditions to create a wave that forces the metals together at velocities exceeding 500 m/s.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Superior Corrosion Resistance
Titanium cladding provides exceptional resistance to acids, chlorides, and seawater corrosion, far exceeding stainless steel performance.
High Strength-to-Weight Ratio
Steel backing provides structural support while titanium offers corrosion protection, creating an optimal balance of strength and weight.
Cost-Effective Solution
Significantly more economical than solid titanium while providing equivalent corrosion protection on wetted surfaces.
Excellent Thermal Conductivity
Superior heat transfer compared to solid titanium, making it ideal for heat exchangers and condensers.
