Application Field Analysis
Double-layer metal clad bar material — mainly titanium clad copper — not only ensures superior conductivity but also provides strong surface corrosion resistance. It is widely used in highly corrosive conductive environments, including electrochemistry, electroplating, electrolysis, hydrometallurgy, PCB manufacturing, electrochemical industry, water treatment, ocean engineering, and more.
-
Electrolytic Industry:
· Cathode Roll: Used for producing electrolytic copper foil (a key raw material for lithium batteries and printed circuit boards). The titanium layer contacts corrosive electrolyte; the copper layer provides high conductivity and thermal conductivity — one of the most significant applications of titanium-coated copper today.
· Other Electrolytic Electrodes: Used in the chlor-alkali industry and hydrometallurgy as insoluble anodes or special cathodes, balancing conductivity and corrosion resistance.
· Cathodic Protection System: As an anode bed material for corrosion prevention of offshore platforms and pipelines. The titanium layer resists seawater corrosion; the copper layer enhances current distribution efficiency. -
High-Performance Electronic Devices:
· Contacts, connectors, or heat dissipation substrates (e.g., power semiconductor modules) requiring high conductivity and local corrosion resistance.
· Some vacuum equipment requires components that are both conductive and corrosion-resistant.
Welding and High-Temperature Tools:
· Resistance welding electrodes, electrical discharge machining electrodes, etc. Copper provides excellent conductivity, and the titanium layer prevents high-temperature oxidation or adhesion. -
Ship and Seawater Systems:
· Manufacturing seawater coolers, heat exchanger tubesheets, etc. The titanium layer resists seawater corrosion; the copper layer enhances heat conductivity and reduces costs compared to all-titanium solutions.
Chemical Equipment:
· Reactor linings, agitators, etc., used in situations requiring both corrosion resistance and rapid heat conduction. -
Hydrogen Fuel Cell:
· Bipolar plates or related components. The titanium layer resists the corrosive environment inside the fuel cell; the copper layer ensures high conductivity.
Nuclear Industry:
· Some nuclear reactors require materials that are radiation-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and thermally conductive. -
Decoration and Architecture:
· Surface in titanium for color and durability; interior in copper for strength and weight reduction. Suitable for high-end decoration or architectural components.
Medical Equipment:
· Combines the biocompatibility of titanium and the antibacterial properties of copper. Suitable for special medical devices or implantable equipment (requiring strict biocompatibility verification).
Double-Layer Metal Clad Bar Material — Conclusion
Double-layer metal composite materials are not merely a simple "1+1". Instead, through advanced composite technologies, they achieve functional integration and performance amplification, successfully resolving the key engineering challenge that a single metal cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of "surface corrosion resistance" and "high conductivity of the bulk". They are particularly suitable for high-end and demanding industrial environments.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
A double-layer metal clad bar material is a composite product made by metallurgically bonding two different metals together — typically titanium (or another corrosion-resistant metal) as the outer clad layer and copper (or another high-conductivity metal) as the substrate. This structure combines the surface corrosion resistance of the outer layer with the excellent electrical and thermal conductivity of the inner core.
-
Substrate materials include Copper T1, T2, Anaerobic Copper TU1/TU2, and Aluminum. Clad materials include Titanium (Ti), Zirconium (Zr), Nickel (Ni), Tantalum (Tan), and Stainless Steel (304, 316L). Custom combinations are available upon request.
-
Available cross-section shapes include Rectangular (width 20–150 mm × thickness 6–30 mm), Circular (Φ 8–50 mm), Square (10–30 mm), and Wire/Silk (Φ 2.0–8.0 mm). The standard clad layer thickness is 1.0–2.5 mm. Custom specifications can be produced according to customer requirements.
