TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of metal coating, in particular to a super-corrosion-resistant titanium alloy wire and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Titanium alloy has been widely used in aerospace, ocean engineering, biomedical, chemical equipment and other high-end fields due to its high specific strength, excellent biocompatibility and non-magnetic characteristics. In the field of aerospace, titanium alloy wire is used to manufacture engine fasteners and fuselage framework connectors, and its corrosion resistance directly affects the service safety of aircraft. In ocean engineering, titanium alloy wire is used as a marine platform cable and underwater instrument connector, which needs to withstand the corrosion of high-salinity seawater for a long time. In the biomedical field, titanium alloy wire is used for orthopedic implants and dental restorations, which need to maintain stable corrosion resistance and biocompatibility in a body fluid environment.
[0003] However, the existing titanium alloy wire still has performance short boards in extreme corrosion environments: in marine environments or strong acid and alkali media containing high concentrations of Cl - , ordinary pure titanium and conventional titanium alloys such as TC4 are prone to pitting corrosion and crevice corrosion, leading to degradation of mechanical properties and even early failure. In high-temperature and high-pressure corrosion environments, the oxide film is prone to peeling, losing its protective effect. At the same time, traditional titanium alloy wire is prepared by the process of "melting and ingot casting-forging and breaking down-multi-pass rolling-drawing", which has problems such as composition segregation and uneven structure, further leading to fluctuations in the corrosion resistance of titanium alloy wire.
[0004] To improve corrosion resistance, existing technologies often use surface coating, anodic oxidation and other post-processing techniques, but the surface treatment layer is easily damaged and quickly fails during processing or service.
[0005] Therefore, the present application provides a super-corrosion-resistant titanium alloy wire to ensure the long-term stable corrosion resistance of titanium alloy wire, thereby meeting the harsh service requirements in related fields, which is of great significance. SUMMARY

[0023] Furthermore, the finishing process involves polishing to a surface roughness Ra ≤ 0.4 μm.
[0024] Furthermore, in S2, the pretreatment includes cleaning and activation.
[0025] The cleaning process involves cleaning the titanium alloy wire substrate with a neutral degreasing agent at 40℃~60℃ for 10min~20min; then cleaning the titanium alloy wire substrate with running water at room temperature for 5min~10min, followed by vacuum drying to complete the cleaning process.

[0038] Furthermore, the particle size of each raw material component of the corrosion-resistant coating is 20μm~30μm.
[0039] Furthermore, the spraying is electrostatic spraying, and its process parameters are: spraying voltage of 60kV~90kV and spraying thickness of 50μm~100μm.
[0040] Furthermore, the parameters of the heat treatment are: holding temperature of 340℃~370℃, holding time of 15min~30min, and air cooling to room temperature.
[0041] Furthermore, the super corrosion-resistant titanium alloy wire prepared by the aforementioned method is a super corrosion-resistant titanium alloy wire.
[0042] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are:
[0043] (1) In this invention, the titanium alloy rods are first pretreated by peeling, alkaline washing, and acid washing to remove the surface defect layer, oil stains, and oxide scale, providing a clean surface for subsequent drawing. To avoid damage during the drawing process, a multi-pass drawing process is adopted to control the drawing parameters and balance drawing efficiency and quality. After drawing, annealing is performed to eliminate drawing defects. Then, after precision drawing, heat treatment, and finishing, a high-quality titanium alloy wire substrate is obtained. Compared with the traditional "melting and casting ingot - forging and billet opening - multi-pass rolling - wire drawing" process, the adjusted drawing process of this invention can better eliminate stress defects generated during the drawing process, resulting in better and more stable comprehensive performance of the processed titanium alloy wire substrate.
[0044] (2) After cleaning the titanium alloy wire substrate, it is then activated. The activation treatment can introduce oxygen-containing functional groups into the titanium alloy wire substrate, which can form a strong bond with the subsequent corrosion-resistant coating, thereby reducing the risk of corrosion-resistant layer peeling and delamination, and extending the corrosion resistance life of the titanium alloy wire substrate.
[0045] (3) In this invention, polyetheretherketone is first hydroxylated, and its hydroxyl content is ensured to be 1.5~3wt%. On the one hand, the polyetheretherketone is effectively hydroxylated, which facilitates the subsequent grafting of sufficient benzophenone structure onto the polyetheretherketone. On the other hand, it can effectively avoid the low degree of hydroxylation, which leads to insufficient modification of polyetheretherketone. It can also avoid the high degree of hydroxylation, which leads to the deterioration of the physical properties of polyetheretherketone and the risk of crosslinking, which is not conducive to subsequent spray coating. Then, the hydroxyl group at the para position of 2,4-dihydroxybenzophenone undergoes a nucleophilic substitution reaction with 2-bromo-N-(bromoethyl)ethylamine. By controlling the molar ratio of the two, an intermediate product retaining one bromine is prepared. Then, it undergoes a nucleophilic substitution reaction with hydroxylated polyetheretherketone. Due to the control of the hydroxyl content of hydroxylated polyetheretherketone mentioned above, benzophenone-polyetheretherketone grafted with sufficient benzophenone structure is finally prepared. Subsequently, the residual hydroxyl groups and remaining imino groups of benzophenone-polyetheretherketone (PEEEK) and the isocyanate groups of 3-isocyanatopropyltriethoxysilane are reacted, followed by immersion in an aqueous ethanol solution for hydrolysis, to prepare modified PEEK. The modified PEEK contains a large number of benzophenone structures and silane segments. The benzophenone structure effectively improves the poor UV resistance of PEEK, thereby ensuring the weather resistance of the corrosion-resistant coating layer and endowing the titanium alloy wire with long-term effective corrosion resistance. The silane segments, in conjunction with the initial activation treatment of the titanium alloy wire substrate, greatly ensure the adhesion between the corrosion-resistant coating layer and the titanium alloy substrate.
[0046] (4) The modified polyether ether ketone, polyimide, polyetherimide, graphite, leveling agent, ultraviolet absorber, and antioxidant are mixed evenly to obtain a corrosion-resistant coating. Polyimide and graphite are added to the corrosion-resistant coating to synergistically modify polyether ether ketone and enhance the corrosion resistance of the coating. Considering that polyether ether ketone itself has high rigidity, the further introduction of polyimide and graphite, two high-rigidity materials, will make the film layer formed easily cracked due to external impact or defects in the film formation process. Therefore, in this invention, polyetherimide is further added to replace most of the polyimide. Although its corrosion resistance is not as good as that of polyimide, it contains ether bonds, which can enhance the flexibility of the film layer molecules and help to obtain a corrosion-resistant coating layer with better overall quality. The subsequent addition of relevant additives, such as leveling agent, ultraviolet absorber, and antioxidant, further improves the quality and related properties of the corrosion-resistant coating layer.
[0047] In summary, this invention achieves a comprehensive preparation of an ultra-corrosion-resistant titanium alloy wire through the synergistic effect of adjusting the drawing process of the titanium rod, activating the titanium alloy wire substrate, and applying a corrosion-resistant coating layer. Furthermore, the corrosion-resistant coating layer on the ultra-corrosion-resistant titanium alloy wire exhibits good weather resistance and adhesion, thus providing long-term and effective protection for the titanium alloy wire.

[0093] (1) Tensile property test: Tensile property test was conducted using a universal testing machine at 23℃ and 50% relative humidity, with a tensile speed of 2mm / min; the specific test results are shown in Table 1.
[0094] (2) Adhesion performance test: Five 20cm long ultra-corrosion resistant titanium alloy wires were taken from each group of examples. A 10cm long section was selected at the same position in the middle section of each ultra-corrosion resistant titanium alloy wire. First, a cross-cut was made horizontally at the end of the selected section. Then, a cross-cut was made horizontally every 1cm. Next, a vertical cut was made from one end to the other end. Finally, the initial vertical cut line was used as the starting line, and vertical cuts were made every π / 6 arc degrees until the cut was complete. The five cut ultra-corrosion resistant titanium alloy wires were aligned side by side. Then, 1.5cm×10cm 3M tape was pasted onto the cut part.

[0097] Table 1
[0098]
[0099] Results Analysis: Table 1 shows that the tensile strength of Comparative Example 1 is greater than that of Example 1. This is because the residual internal stress from processing in Comparative Example 1 leads to an artificially high tensile strength. Furthermore, analysis of the elongation at break shows that Example 1 exhibits a higher elongation at break (i.e., toughness). Based on practical applications, if titanium alloy wire is brittle, its application scope is extremely limited, making it difficult to meet actual needs. Therefore, the titanium alloy wire substrate prepared using the drawing process described in this invention will have more stable properties. This also suggests that it will exhibit better corrosion resistance.
