Ibikoresho bya Titanium
Umuti wa Titanium ufite imbaraga nyinshi nubucucike buke, imiterere myiza yubukanishi, gukomera no kurwanya ruswa. Byongeye kandi, titanium alloy process imikorere ni mibi, guca bigoye, mugutunganya ubushyuhe, byoroshye cyane kwinjiza hydrogen ogisijeni azote ya karubone nibindi byanduye. Hariho imyambarire idahwitse, inzira igoye. Inganda zikora inganda za titanium zatangiye mu 1948. Iterambere ry’inganda zikoresha indege zikenera, ku buryo inganda za titanium hamwe n’ikigereranyo cyo kuzamuka kw’umwaka ku kigero cya 8%.
Kugeza ubu, umusaruro wa buri mwaka wibikoresho byo gutunganya titanium ku isi bigeze kuri toni zirenga 40.000, nubwoko bugera kuri 30 bwamanota ya titanium. Amavuta ya titanium akoreshwa cyane ni Ti-6Al-4V (TC4), Ti-5Al-2.5Sn (TA7) na titanium yinganda (TA1, TA2 na TA3).
Amavuta ya Titanium akoreshwa cyane mugukora ibice bya compressor kuri moteri yindege, bigakurikirwa nibice byubatswe bya roketi, misile nindege yihuta. Mu myaka ya za 60 rwagati, titanium hamwe n’ibisigazwa byayo byari byarakoreshejwe mu nganda rusange mu gukora electrode ya electrolysis, kondereseri y’amashanyarazi, ubushyuhe bwo gutunganya amavuta no kuyangiza, hamwe n’ibikoresho byo kurwanya umwanda. Titanium n'ibiyikoze byahindutse ubwoko bwa ruswa - ibikoresho byubaka birwanya. Mubyongeyeho, ikoreshwa kandi mugukora ibikoresho byo kubika hydrogène no gushushanya ububiko bwo kwibuka.
Ubushinwa bwatangiye ubushakashatsi kuri titanium na titanium alloys mu 1956; Hagati ya 1960, umusaruro winganda wibikoresho bya titanium niterambere rya TB2 alloy byatangiye. Titanium alloy ni ibikoresho bishya byubaka bikoreshwa mu nganda zo mu kirere. Uburemere bwihariye, imbaraga nubushyuhe bwa serivisi biri hagati ya aluminium nicyuma, ariko imbaraga zayo ni ndende kandi ifite ruswa nziza yo kurwanya amazi yinyanja hamwe nubushyuhe bukabije bwa ultra-low.
Mu 1950, F-84 indege-bombe-bomberi yakoreshejwe bwa mbere nkingabo yinyuma ya fuselage yinyuma, ingofero yumuyaga, umurizo wumurizo, nibindi bikoresho bititwaza. Kuva mu myaka ya za 1960, imikoreshereze ya titanium yimuwe yavuye muri fuselage yinyuma yerekeza hagati ya fuselage yo hagati, isimbuza igice ibyuma byubatswe kugirango ikore ibintu byingenzi bifata nkibikoresho, ibiti na flap slide. Ikoreshwa rya titanium alloy mu ndege za gisirikare ryiyongereye vuba, rigera kuri 20% ~ 25% byuburemere bwimiterere yindege.
