Titanium technology for future ships

In the process of modern ship development, the United States, Russia (Soviet Union), Britain, Germany, France, Japan and other ship powerhouse, are the development of materials technology as the basis for the development of the ship and the precursor to the development of materials technology has attached great importance to the development of materials technology, not only in different periods of development from the top of the development of ship materials technology development research, the formulation of the development of a strategic plan, invested a lot of manpower and financial resources to continue to carry out the basic materials technology, emerging materials technology, research and development and cutting-edge technology exploration, but also pays great attention to the construction of test and verification platform (including test submarines). R&D of basic material technology, emerging material technology and exploration of cutting-edge technology, and also pays great attention to the construction of test and verification platform (including test submarine). Along with the development of ships, through continuous innovation and advancing with the times, people have not only developed a variety of materials to meet the needs of ships in various periods of development, but also formed a strong research and production capacity of materials technology and a complete supporting system of complete categories, and established a more complete ship materials system and the basic theories, methods and processes of ship materials technology. Focusing on the current state of development of ship materials technology, based on the 21st century (2035 years ago) the development of high-tech, it can be predicted that the development of ship materials technology in the early 21st century, will be a large number of titanium materials. Especially Titanium Bar, Titanium Plate and Titanium Forging

"Titanium" - high-performance titanium alloy research and development and popularization of the application is imperative

The main development trend of future ship protection material technology is:

1. While continuing to improve or maintain the existing characteristics of titanium alloys, should reduce the manufacturing cost of titanium alloys and their products as an important direction for future development.

2. to carry out the construction of convenient, safe and reliable titanium alloy welding and manufacturing (bending, molding, etc.) process and other technical research is another important direction for future development.

3. Focus on the further promotion and application of titanium alloy and its products in the development of ships.

4. Further improve the titanium alloy material system, continue to research and develop, expand the marine titanium alloy product line and so on.
