In modern warfare, the golden rule of military design has become "30% weight reduction equals 30% survival rate improvement." Titanium alloys, with their low density of 4.5g/cm³ (only 60% of steel) and tensile strength of ≥895MPa, are emerging as the "material code" in the arms industry. From single-handed titanium mortar systems to armor capable of withstanding armor-piercing projectiles, this "space metal" is reshaping the technological landscape of defense equipment.

Operating Condition Characteristics:Extreme Environment of "Extreme Challenge"
Titanium must remain stable under triple extreme conditions:
1. Temperature Hell: From-50℃ Plateau Cold Region to 600℃ Gun Barrel Temperature,TC11 Titanium Alloy Can Maintain 640MPa Durable Strength
2. Corrosion-resistant battlefield: The naval equipment is made of TA2 pure titanium, with a corrosion rate of <0.001 mm/year, which is 1/50th that of stainless steel.
3.Impact test: The mortar mount plate must withstand an instantaneous impact force of 300MPa (equivalent to three elephants standing on a 1 m² area). The TC4 titanium alloy achieves impact toughness of **≥50 J/cm² through forging in the β-phase region.
The difficulty of manufacturing: the game between high temperature, high viscosity and high elasticity
Titanium alloy machining is called "the Mount Everest of metalworking":
1. Cutting heat trap: With thermal conductivity only 1/7 that of steel, the cutting zone temperature can reach 1000°C, requiring ultra-fine-grained cemented carbide tools (WC-Co alloy).
2. Welding Oxidation Hardening: Welding Strength of 90% of Base Material and Crack Rate <0.5% by Electron Beam Welding.
3. Difficult Problem of Elastic Deformation: Processing Springback is 3 times that of Steel, Need to Use Stress Release Annealing Process (550℃ for 2 hours).

Star Product Matrix
