If the ECM of titanium is attempted in sodium chloride electrolyte, very low (10—20%) current efficiency is usually obtained. When this solution is replaced by some mixture of fluoride-based electrolytes, to achieve greater efficiencies (> 60%), a higher voltage (ca 60 V) is used. These conditions ate needed to break down the tenacious oxide film that forms on the surface of titanium. It is this film which accounts for the corrosion resistance of titanium, and together with its toughness and lightness, make this metal so useful in the aircraft engine industry. 

Sometimes the formation of oxide films on the metal surface binders efficient ECM, and leads to poor surface finish. Eor example, the ECM of titanium is rendered difficult in chloride and nitrate electrolytes because the oxide film formed is so passive. Even when higher (eg, ca 50 V) voltage is apphed, to break the oxide film, its dismption is so nonuniform that deep grain boundary attack of the metal surface occurs. 

Nickel—Copper. In the soHd state, nickel and copper form a continuous soHd solution. The nickel-rich, nickel—copper alloys are characterized by a good compromise of strength and ductihty and are resistant to corrosion and stress corrosion ia many environments, ia particular water and seawater, nonoxidizing acids, neutral and alkaline salts, and alkaUes. These alloys are weldable and are characterized by elevated and high temperature mechanical properties for certain appHcations. The copper content ia these alloys also easure improved thermal coaductivity for heat exchange. MONEL alloy 400 is a typical nickel-rich, nickel—copper alloy ia which the nickel content is ca 66 wt %. MONEL alloy K-500 is essentially alloy 400 with small additions of aluminum and titanium. Aging of alloy K-500 results in very fine y -precipitates and increased strength (see also Copper alloys). 

Small amounts of TiN, HfN, and other metallic nitrides are produced on a pilot-plant scale. Titanium nitride is sold for 40—100/kg, depending on purity and grain si2e. Prices for HfN are ca 400 /kg.

Antireflection coatings are used over the silicon surface which, without the coating, reflects ca 35% of incident sunlight. A typical coating consists of a single layer of a transparent dielectric material with a refractive index of ca 2, which is between the index of siUcon and ait or cover material. Materials such as titanium dioxide, tantalum pentoxide, Ta20, or siUcon nitride, Si N, ca 0.08-p.m thick are common. The coating and a physically textured... 

The first iron—nickel martensitic alloys contained ca 0.01% carbon, 20 or 25% nickel, and 1.5—2.5% aluminum and titanium. Later an 18% nickel steel containing cobalt, molybdenum, and titanium was developed, and still more recentiy a senes of 12% nickel steels containing chromium and molybdenum came on the market. 

It is carried out in the Hquid phase at 100—130°C and catalyzed by a soluble molybdenum naphthenate catalyst, also in a series of reactors with interreactor coolers. The dehydration of a-phenylethanol to styrene takes place over an acidic catalyst at about 225°C. A commercial plant (50,51) was commissioned in Spain in 1973 by Halcon International in a joint venture with Enpetrol based on these reactions, in a process that became known as the Oxirane process, owned by Oxirane Corporation, a joint venture of ARCO and Halcon International. Oxirane Corporation merged into ARCO in 1980 and this process is now generally known as the ARCO process. It is used by ARCO at its Channelview, Texas, plant and in Japan and Korea in joint ventures with local companies. A similar process was developed by Shell (52—55) and commercialized in 1979 at its Moerdijk plant in the Netherlands. The Shell process uses a heterogeneous catalyst of titanium oxide on siHca support in the epoxidation step. Another plant by Shell is under constmction in Singapore (ca 1996). 

Titanium is the ninth most abundant element ia the earth s cmst, at approximately 0.62%, and the fourth most abundant stmctural element. Its elemental abundance is about five times less than iron and 100 times greater than copper, yet for stmctural appHcations titanium s aimual use is ca 200 times less than copper and 2000 times less than iron. Metal production began in 1948 its principal use was in military aircraft. Gradually the appHcations spread to commercial aircraft, the chemical industry, and, more recently, consumer goods. 

Titanium alloy systems have been extensively studied. A single company evaluated over 3000 compositions in eight years (Rem-Cm sponsored work at BatteUe Memorial Institute). AHoy development has been aimed at elevated-temperature aerospace appHcations, strength for stmctural appHcations, biocompatibiHty, and corrosion resistance. The original effort has been in aerospace appHcations to replace nickel- and cobalt-base alloys in the 250—600°C range. The useful strength and corrosion-resistance temperature limit is ca 550°C. 

The titanium oxide film consists of mtile or anatase (31) and is typically 250-A thick. It is insoluble, repairable, and nonporous in many chemical media and provides excellent corrosion resistance. The oxide is fully stable in aqueous environments over a range of pH, from highly oxidizing to mildly reducing. However, when this oxide film is broken, the corrosion rate is very rapid. Usually the presence of a small amount of water is sufficient to repair the damaged oxide film. In a seawater solution, this film is maintained in the passive region from ca 0.2 to 10 V versus the saturated calomel electrode (32,33). 

Titanium corrodes very rapidly in acid fluoride environments. It is attacked in boiling HCl or H2SO4 at acid concentrations of >1% or in ca 10 wt % acid concentration at room temperature. Titanium is also attacked by hot caustic solutions, phosphoric acid solutions (concentrations >25 wt%), boiling AlCl (concentrations >10 wt %), dry chlorine gas, anhydrous ammonia above 150°C, and dry hydrogen—dihydrogen sulfide above 150°C. 

Titanium is susceptible to pitting and crevice corrosion in aqueous chloride environments. The area of susceptibiUty for several alloys is shown in Figure 7 as a function of temperature and pH. The susceptibiUty depends on pH. The susceptibiUty temperature increases paraboHcaHy from 65°C as pH is increased from 2ero. After the incorporation of noble-metal additions such as in ASTM Grades 7 or 12, crevice corrosion attack is not observed above pH 2 until ca 270°C. Noble alloying elements shift the equiUbrium potential into the passive region where a protective film is formed and maintained.
