Titanium, as a chemical element in itself, is also regarded as a precious metal material. Now it has been applied to all aspects of our lives, among which titanium glasses are the closest to us. Because the distribution of titanium metal is more dispersive and difficult to extract, this has become the most important reason for the high price of titanium eyeglass frames.
And according to the different processing technology, refining means and process application methods, titanium metal glasses are also divided into many different categories, including pure titanium glasses, beta titanium, titanium alloy and other three main types, then what are the differences between them? One by one introduction.
Pure titanium. The most convenient and critical way to judge whether the material of the spectacle frame is pure titanium is to see its titanium purity. Usually only when the titanium purity reaches 99% or more, can it be used as pure titanium spectacles. The frame made of pure titanium material has the advantages of high melting point, light material, strong corrosion resistance and firm electroplating layer, which can ensure the beauty and durability of the frame.
Beta titanium. First of all, beta titanium does not belong to titanium alloy, it can be understood as another molecular state of titanium material. Although the purity of beta titanium can not be compared with pure titanium, its strength, fatigue resistance and environmental corrosion resistance are better than pure titanium. Secondly, because the manufacturing process of beta titanium is higher than pure titanium, only large factories and brands will be produced. Usually, the customers who are facing are those who require high style and weight of spectacle frames.
Titanium alloy. Titanium alloys are widely defined. In principle, they can be called titanium alloys as long as they contain titanium materials. Therefore, the quality and grade of titanium alloy spectacle frames are not uniform, and the price of titanium alloy spectacles has a direct impact on the composition of titanium alloy, which is clearly marked in the introduction of the frame, so that buyers know what titanium and what materials of the alloy, such as titanium-nickel alloy, titanium-aluminium-vanadium alloy and so on. Another point about titanium alloy is to declare that making glasses with titanium alloy is not to reduce the cost, but to improve the application performance of materials. At present, the memory frame on the market is made of titanium alloy.
Well, the introduction of pure titanium, beta titanium and titanium alloy is coming to an end. It can be seen that the difference between them is not only the price, but also the unique process and product performance.
