Porous titanium is an inorganic filter material that is made of high-purity titanium alloy as raw material and combined with a special process and sintered at high temperature. A large number of open pores are distributed on the surface of porous titanium, and the pore structure is uniform. As a new structural material, porous titanium has the advantages of high specific strength, high porosity, excellent designability, good biocompatibility, and good energy absorption. With its excellent properties, porous titanium has shown good application prospects in military and civilian fields. At this stage, porous titanium has become one of the hot research directions in structural materials.
Porous titanium has the functions of adsorption, screening, shock absorption, energy absorption, and antibacterial. As a filter element, porous titanium can be used in water treatment, brewing, alcohol recovery, food, industrial acid-base liquid filtration and other fields; as a medical material, porous titanium Titanium can be used to produce spinal cages, artificial joints, artificial acetabular cups, etc., as well as pharmaceutical-grade chemical production. Titanium is a rare metal, and it is difficult to process, resulting in a high market price of porous titanium. Due to this limitation, currently, porous titanium is mainly used in the medical field, and less in the field of water treatment.
In terms of preparation technology, the current preparation technology of porous titanium mainly includes the powder metallurgy method, pore-forming agent method, titanium wire sintering method, metal injection molding method, 3D printing technology, chemical deposition technology, etc. The pore-forming agent method is based on powder metallurgy. The pore-forming agent is mixed with the metal powder, then the pore-forming agent is removed, and porous titanium is obtained by sintering under a vacuum. Common pore-forming agents include ammonium bicarbonate, urea, sodium chloride, etc.
According to the "2022-2026 China Porous Titanium Industry Market Monitoring and Future Development Prospect Research Report" released by Xinsijie Industry Research Center, powder metallurgy and titanium wire sintering as traditional preparation processes have the advantages of mature technology and low cost. , but the biological properties of the products are poor; 3D printing and chemical deposition, as emerging preparation processes, have the advantage of excellent product performance, but high production costs and are not suitable for large-scale production.
With the improvement of the research level, more high-tech and high-tech equipment will be applied to the production and preparation of porous titanium in the future, such as nanotechnology, IC-SDPS technology, etc. Technological progress may boost the scale of the porous titanium industry, and low-cost development. However, at present, compared with reverse osmosis membranes, porous titanium does not have advantages in terms of price and supply scale. Therefore, from the perspective of interest, porous titanium has less application value in the field of standard water treatment.
Industry analysts from Xinsijie said that our country has a huge population base. With the acceleration of the aging process of the population, the number of patients with orthopedic diseases in China will further increase, and the market demand for orthopedic transplantation/repair equipment will increase accordingly. Porous titanium has excellent biocompatibility. It is a hot material for the manufacture of orthopedic implant/repair equipment and has huge application prospects in the future. In the future, under the background of technological progress, process optimization, and cost reduction, the production scale and product quality of porous titanium will be further improved, and the application of porous titanium is expected to be further expanded.
