The reason why titanium wire can shine in industry and life, in addition to its excellent performance, but also can not be separated from a variety of surface treatment technologies, “icing on the cake”. The surface treatment of titanium wire technologies is like tailor-made “war clothes” for titanium wire, so that it can play a maximum value in different fields.
The most common treatment is anodizing. This technology generates a dense titanium dioxide film on the surface of titanium wire through an electrolytic process. This oxide film is not simple; it can not only significantly enhance the corrosion resistance of titanium wire, but also, by the principle of light interference, so that the titanium wire to show gold, blue, and other colorful appearances. As a result, the surface treatment of titanium wire is not only better in function, but also unique in appearance, transforming it into a “favorite” in the fashion industry, and is widely used in all kinds of fashion jewelry and design.
When faced with extreme environmental needs, micro-arc oxidation technology will come in handy, becoming a titanium wire to improve the “combat effectiveness” of the weapon. This process utilizes a high-voltage discharge to grow a ceramic oxide layer in situ on the surface of the titanium wire. The hardness of the oxide layer is extremely high, up to 5 times more than ordinary titanium, greatly enhancing the wear resistance and damage resistance of titanium wire. Even more amazingly, after adding calcium and phosphorus elements to the electrolyte, if the micro-arc oxidized titanium wire is implanted into the human body, the ceramic layer on its surface can form a chemical bond with the bone. This unique bonding significantly improves the long-term stability of orthopedic implants and brings new solutions to the medical field.
In the medical field, a combination of sandblasting + acid washing is used to characterize the application of titanium wires. Sandblasting effectively removes small scratches on the surface of the titanium wire, resulting in a smoother surface, while acid washing further refines the surface to create a uniform roughness. This uniform roughness is very favorable for cell attachment and can promote the growth and proliferation of cells in the surface treatment of titanium wire, providing a good biocompatible basis for titanium wire in medical implants and other applications.
In the electronics industry, on the other hand, laser burring technology shows unique advantages. The technology sculpts honeycomb-like structures at the contact points of titanium wires with micron-level precision. This fine structural design not only ensures the conductive reliability of titanium wire in electronic devices but also avoids the problem of stress concentration caused by traditional machining, which improves the stability and reliability of titanium wire in electronic applications.
Each of the surface treatments of titanium wire technologies is customized according to the “working environment” of the titanium wire. They enhance the performance of titanium wire from different angles, so that titanium wire in industrial manufacturing, fashion design, medical implantation, the electronics industry, and many other areas can maximize the value of titanium wire, and become one of the important materials to promote the development of various industries.
