Introduction to the Application of Titanium Alloy Building Decoration Materials

May 24, 2022

Metallic materials are used in construction, especially for roofs, first with copper, then with surface-treated steel, aluminum, stainless steel and titanium. With the continuous development of the national economy and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, people's requirements for urban buildings, especially the aesthetics of buildings, are getting higher and higher.


In recent years, architects have pursued the use of new building materials that are more advanced than traditional materials. Titanium metal has many excellent properties and fully meets many special performance requirements for building materials, so it is favored by architects and the construction industry.


Japan is the first country to apply titanium to buildings, and it is also the country that applies the most titanium to buildings.


It is mainly used in the roof of buildings, as well as building curtain walls, ports, bridges, tunnels, outer walls, house numbers, railings, pipes, etc. The United Kingdom, France, the United States, Spain, the Netherlands, Canada, Belgium, and Switzerland have examples of using titanium metal for roofs and curtain walls. Sweden, Singapore, Egypt and other countries have also begun to use titanium metal in some new buildings. In 1997, the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, used titanium plates to construct a curved architectural shape. Abu Dhabi Airport also selected titanium, and the amount used is several hundred tons. The airport is the first airport in the world to use titanium as a building structural material.


The first building in my country that proposed the application of titanium metal was the National Grand Theater, and the first application was the Hangzhou Grand Theater.


Buildings using titanium metal include the main hall of China Nonferrous Metals Engineering Design and Research Institute, Hangzhou Linping Donglai No. 1 Pavilion, Shanghai Circus Acrobatic Field Roof and Dalian Shengya Polar World. The titanium sculpture "Dolphin and People" in Hebin Park, Baoji City, Shaanxi Province, the titanium sculpture "Qiankun Ball" in the central square of Xingtai City, Hebei Province, and the titanium sculpture "Rooster Announcement" in the pedestrian street of Baoji City, Shaanxi Province are used for urban sculpture. Wait.


my country's titanium metal production technology is basically mature, the production design scale is large, but the sales market is not large, and the economic benefits are not ideal, mainly due to the lack of products with good technical and economic performance that customers are satisfied with. The current status of titanium used in construction in my country is as follows:


1. Single product: As a structural material, there are not enough varieties for users to choose. As a surface decoration material, there is currently no large-scale production enterprise of titanium surface treatment in my country, and the processing is still in the stage of manual workshop production, which is not conducive to the large-scale use of titanium as a decorative material.


2. Low grade: There is no high-quality product, and there is no large supply of titanium and related composite materials. Only some models, city sculptures, handicrafts, etc. can be produced, and there is no high-grade surface decoration material and its production methods.


3. High price: Due to the lack of stable and high-quality products, it is impossible to have a wide application in a large area, resulting in a small amount of use and high price, which is not conducive to popularization and use.


4. Designer factor: There is no similar vocational training system in my country, and new materials are not stored in the thinking of architects after they are invented. As a result, titanium metal is rarely designed in original architectural design drawings, and its uses are obviously less.


In recent years, with the progress of global oceanization and the continuous decline in the price of titanium raw materials, the demand and application scope of titanium in the construction and decoration fields are expanding. , the demand for titanium materials in marine engineering and island construction will reach more than 5,000 tons, and the titanium used in shipbuilding industry will reach more than 5,000 tons.


However, there is still no company specialized in the production of titanium materials for architectural decoration in my country, but the industrial materials are simply used in the civilian field, which is far from the market and industry demand. specialization needs.


Titanium is currently the cheapest metal that can be mass-produced and is almost completely uncorroded by seawater. As a building material, titanium has a low reflectivity and is pale silver-grey with an attractive metallic natural luster.


Baoji Titanium Industry Research Institute will produce titanium materials for architectural decoration, mainly used in roofs of buildings, followed by curtain walls of buildings, harbor facilities, bridges, submarine tunnels, outer walls, decorations, small accessories, column decoration, exterior decoration, Monuments, signs, house numbers, railings, pipes, anti-corrosion coatings, etc. The project uses domestic existing titanium plates and titanium coils as raw materials, and adopts shaping polishing and embossing technology to make the surface of the plate bright, consistent in color and with metallic patterns; using large-area plate anodizing coloring technology, the surface of the plate is colored to form a colorful Color, to meet the needs of construction and decorative materials.
