Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of titanium tubes, specifically a spiral corrugated reinforced anti-corrosion connection structure for TA2 titanium tubes suitable for strong acid and alkali environments. Background Technology
[0002] TA2 titanium pipes are often used in corrosive environments such as strong acids and alkalis due to their strong corrosion resistance and high strength. At the same time, the spiral corrugated reinforced structure improves the resistance to deformation. However, ordinary connection structures are susceptible to corrosion, which can lead to sealing failure and pipe damage. Traditional flanges and welded connections have shortcomings such as easy corrosion of sealing materials and the impact of welding on corrosion resistance. Simple coating corrosion protection is also difficult to maintain for long. Therefore, a spiral corrugated reinforced anti-corrosion connection structure for TA2 titanium pipes suitable for strong acid and alkali environments is needed.
[0003] When connecting existing TA2 titanium pipes, welding and flange connections are commonly used. During welding, the high temperature alters the microstructure of the titanium pipe joint, creating a heat-affected zone. In this zone, the originally dense and stable oxide film on the titanium pipe surface is destroyed, exposing the metal substrate directly to a strong acid or alkali environment, making it highly susceptible to corrosion. Furthermore, the stress concentration generated during welding accelerates the corrosion process at the joint. Flange connections require auxiliary materials such as gaskets to ensure a sealing effect. However, in strong acid or alkali environments, the corrosion resistance of these sealing materials varies. Even if a seal is initially achieved, the gasket material will gradually corrode over time, leading to seal failure. Corrosive media will then seep into the gaps at the joint, corroding the TA2 titanium pipe. At the same time, simple coating corrosion protection is not durable. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a spiral corrugated reinforced anti-corrosion connection structure for TA2 titanium pipes suitable for strong acid and alkali environments. Utility Model Content
[0004] Based on this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a spiral corrugated reinforced anti-corrosion connection structure for TA2 titanium tubes suitable for strong acid and alkali environments. This addresses the common issues encountered with existing spiral corrugated reinforced anti-corrosion connection structures for TA2 titanium tubes in strong acid and alkali environments, such as welding and flange connections. During welding, the high temperature alters the microstructure of the titanium tube connection, creating a heat-affected zone. In this zone, the originally dense and stable oxide film on the titanium tube surface is destroyed, exposing the metal substrate directly to the strong acid and alkali environment, making it highly susceptible to corrosion. Furthermore, the stress concentration generated during welding accelerates the corrosion process at the connection. Flange connections require auxiliary materials such as gaskets to ensure a sealing effect. However, in strong acid and alkali environments, the corrosion resistance of these sealing materials varies. Even if a seal is initially achieved, the gasket material gradually corrodes over time, leading to seal failure. Corrosive media then seep into the gaps at the connection, corroding the TA2 titanium tube. Additionally, simple coating corrosion protection is not durable.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a TA2 titanium tube spiral corrugated reinforced anti-corrosion connection structure suitable for strong acid and alkali environments, including a connecting sleeve, wherein the inner wall of the connecting sleeve is bonded with a corrosion-resistant sealant, and the outer wall of the corrosion-resistant sealant is bonded with a titanium tube body.
[0006] The outer wall of the titanium tube body is coated with a titanium alloy coating, the outer wall of the titanium alloy coating is coated with silicon carbide ceramic, and the outer wall of the silicon carbide ceramic is coated with an organic-inorganic hybrid coating.
[0007] Preferably, the inner wall of the connecting sleeve is in close contact with the outer wall of the corrosion-resistant sealant, and the inner diameter of the connecting sleeve is larger than the outer diameter of the corrosion-resistant sealant.
[0008] Preferably, the connecting sleeve is engaged with the titanium tube body, and one end of the titanium tube body has a slotted design.
[0009] Preferably, the titanium tube body is symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the connecting sleeve, and the connecting sleeve is arranged parallel to the titanium tube body.
[0010] Preferably, the outer wall of the titanium alloy coating is in close contact with the outer wall of the silicon carbide ceramic, and the length of the outer wall of the titanium alloy coating is the same as the length of the outer wall of the silicon carbide ceramic.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] 1. This utility model uses a titanium tube body to engage and tighten the connecting sleeve. The connecting sleeve tightens onto the titanium tube body, forming a tight mechanical engagement between the connecting sleeve and the titanium tube body. At the same time, corrosion-resistant sealant is injected into the connection gap, which can effectively prevent the penetration of strong acid and alkali media. After curing, it can also form a chemical bond with the surface of the connecting sleeve and the titanium tube body, enhancing the overall corrosion resistance of the connection and ensuring the reliability and stability of the tightening connection.
[0013] 2. This utility model achieves a tight bond between the titanium alloy coating and the silicon carbide ceramic by setting a titanium alloy coating. A gradient composite coating is prepared on the surface of the titanium tube main connecting structure. From the inside out, the first layer is a titanium alloy coating with a material similar to that of the titanium tube, which enhances the bonding force with the substrate. The second layer is silicon carbide ceramic, which uses the high hardness and chemical stability of ceramic to resist the corrosion of strong acids and alkalis. The outermost layer is an organic-inorganic hybrid coating. The organic part provides good flexibility, and the inorganic part enhances corrosion resistance and wear resistance. Through this gradient composite protective structure, the durability of the connecting structure in strong acid and alkali environments is improved from the surface protection level. Moreover, the gradient design of the coating can reduce the stress concentration problem caused by the difference in material properties. Attached Figure Description
