Titanium Diboride (TiB2) Powders
Titanium diboride powders combine superior hardness with corrosion resistance, exceptional high-temperature stability and superior oxidation resistance up to 1000°C. Momentive Technologies’ unique process technology enables high-purity TiB2 powders, with exceptional batch-to-batch consistency necessary for demanding applications.
Features and Benefits
- Excellent resistance to chemical attack from molten metals significantly extends metal processing component lifespans
- Oxidation resistance stabilizes friction levels of high-performance brakes up to 1000°C
- High hardness improves abrasion resistance
- Excellent electrical conductivity at room temperature and high temperatures to enable high temperature heaters & metallization sources
Momentive Technologies’ TiB2 portfolio includes two standard grades: HCT-30, a general purpose, high purity grade suitable for a broad range of applications, and HCT-F, a unique grade that combines high purity and fine particle size with very low levels of trace metal impurities. Momentive Technologies can also customize formulations with sintering additives for specific applications.
Potential Applications
- Corrosion-resistant / abrasion-resistant / electrically-conductive composites
- Additive for electrically conductive thermal interface materials for Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) shielding and thermal management
- Base material for production of sintered TiB2 shapes, including plates
- Friction modifier and stabilizer for high-performance brakes
