Titanium Sponge

The production process of Titanium Sponge mainly includes two methods: magnesium reduction distillation method (i.e. Claus method) and sodium reduction distillation method, which are applied in industrial production.

The production process of the Claus method is as follows: titanium ore - electric furnace smelting to produce high titanium slag - chlorination to produce titanium tetrachloride - refining and purification to produce refined titanium tetrachloride - magnesium reduction - distillation to produce sponge titanium - finished product crushing and packaging.

       The produced titanium sponge still needs to be melted and cast into titanium ingots (or titanium alloys) in a vacuum arc furnace, and then forged or rolled into corresponding pipes, plates, or wires in order to be applied in industry.
