Problems solved by technology

The biggest problem of this preparation process using fine titanium powder as raw material is that the product has a high oxygen content, and the oxygen increase in the preparation process cannot be avoided, which cannot meet the requirements of the injection molding process. It is also caused by the reduction of particle size and the increase of surface area during the crushing process, which is also inevitable in the process of preparing spherical powder from fine titanium powder.
At the same time, the raw material for preparing spherical powder is obtained by hydrogenation dehydrogenation process. Compared with the process of preparing spherical titanium powder with sponge titanium as the starting material, it increases the process of hydrogenation, crushing, dehydrogenation, and crushing again. The process will not only affect the product purity, but also increase the production cost, which makes this process difficult to industrialize

Abstract

The invention discloses a manufacturing method for minuteness spherical titanium powder, and belongs to the technical field of metal and alloy powder manufacturing. The manufacturing method includes the steps that titanium sponge serves as a raw material to be manufactured into a bar or a wire; in a melting chamber, under the vacuum condition, double-femtosecond pulse lasers are used for inducing, heating and melting, and the melted raw material is poured into a tundish; the raw material is transferred into an atomizing chamber, under the vacuum condition, inert gas led into a centrifugal stem bar breaks titanium melt; further breaking is carried out through a laval spraying nozzle, and micron-order titanium liquid is manufactured; and finally, the micron-order titanium liquid is contained in an argon filling medium tank to be solidified and cooled, and the minuteness spherical titanium powder can be obtained after screening is carried out. The double-femtosecond pulse lasers are used for rapidly and efficiently melting titanium in a pure manner, and the even, stable and continuous alloy liquid flow can be formed; in addition, the melting and pulverization efficiency is high, and the atomizing yield and the powder yield of the metal powder are improved; and the manufactured minuteness spherical titanium powder is high in degree of sphericity and low in oxygen content.
