Product Description

Products Details

GR12 titanium alloy (Ti-0.3Mo-0.8Ni) is a high performance material designed for extreme corrosive environments. Its core strength lies in its excellent resistance to reducing acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid and stress corrosion cracking, as well as good cold workability and weldability.

Typical Applications

▶

Refinery desulphurisation unit: Replaced original 316L stainless steel, extended service intervals from 6 months to 5 years.

▶

Printed circuit board plating equipment: Heater tube life extended from 1 year to 8 years, cost reduction of 60%.

▶

Geothermal power generation system: 10 years continuous operation without corrosion in pH=2 geothermal fluid.

GR12 Titanium alloy rod is mainly used in the chemical industry, such as acid pipelines, electrolysis tanks, petroleum refining desulphurisation equipment, electroplating industry heating pipes, and geothermal energy systems. In high temperature, high corrosive media, its life is up to 5-10 times that of ordinary stainless steel, making it a cost-effective alternative to Hastelloy and Tantalum solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is GR12 Titanium Alloy?

GR12 is a high-strength titanium alloy composed of Titanium, 0.3% Molybdenum, and 0.8% Nickel. It is specifically designed for superior corrosion resistance in reducing acid environments.

2. How does GR12 compare to 316L stainless steel?

In highly corrosive environments like boiled hydrochloric acid, GR12 has a corrosion rate of less than 0.1 mm/y, while 316L stainless steel often faces perforation or rapid degradation.

3. What are the main applications of GR12 titanium rods?

They are primarily used in chemical processing, oil refinery desulphurisation units, electroplating equipment, and geothermal power systems where high acid resistance is required.

4. Does GR12 offer good weldability?

Yes, GR12 titanium alloy is known for its excellent weldability and cold workability, making it versatile for manufacturing complex industrial components.

5. Can GR12 be used in high-temperature environments?

Absolutely. It maintains its structural integrity and corrosion resistance in high-temperature settings, lasting significantly longer than standard stainless steels.

6. Is GR12 a cost-effective material?

While the initial cost may be higher than steel, its lifespan is 5-10 times longer in corrosive media, providing a much lower total cost of ownership over time.
