Title:
TITANIUM SHEET COATED WITH PROTECTIVE FILM AND HAVING EXCELLENT RESISTANCE AGAINST HIGH-TEMPERATURE OXIDATION AND HIGH-TEMPERATURE SALT DAMAGE, AUTOMOTIVE EXHAUST SYSTEM USING THE SHEET, AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURE OF THE SHEET OR SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/043594
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is a titanium sheet coated with a protective film, which has excellent resistance against high-temperature oxidation and high-temperature salt damage. Also disclosed is a method for manufacture of the titanium sheet. Further disclosed is an automotive exhaust system using the titanium sheet. The titanium sheet has a protective film formed on its surface. The protective film has a foil-like form and has an average thickness of 0.1 to 5 μm and an average width or average length of 1 to 50 μm. Alternatively, the protective film has a thickness of 1 to 100 μm and comprises particulate metal Al with an average particle diameter of 0.1 to 30 μm dispersed in a silicone resin or silicone grease in an amount of 20 to 60% by mass, and has the following composition: Si: 15-55% by mass; C: 10-45% by mass; and the remainder: unavoidable impurities. Preferably, the base titanium sheet contains one or both of Cu in an amount of 0.5 to 2.1% by mass and Al in an amount of 0.4 to 2.5% by mass. The titanium sheet can be produced by a method comprising brush-coating or spray-coating a silicone resin having the above composition on a titanium sheet to form a protective film on the titanium sheet and then heating the resulting sheet at 150 to 300˚C for 5 to 60 min.
