Titanium Wire
Therefore, the oxide film generated by anodizing and thermal oxidation will significantly improve the corrosion resistance of titanium. Now customers of titanium rod processing manufacturers have used our titanium rods and titanium wires to make many similar products, which shows that this is a feasible way.

The oxide film of titanium (including thermal oxidation film or anodic oxidation film) is usually not a single structure, and the composition and structure of its oxide change with the formation conditions. Under normal circumstances, the interface between the oxide film and the environment may be TiO2, but the interface between the oxide film and the metal may be dominated by TiO. In other words, under normal circumstances, the surface of the titanium rods we produce is TiO2, and the interface between the metal and the oxide film is TiO. Of course, this includes titanium wire, titanium plate, and titanium forgings. The surface of the titanium alloy rod is more complicated.

Titanium alloy Wire
However, whether it is a pure titanium rod, a titanium alloy rod, or a titanium alloy wire, there are transition layers of different valence states in the middle, and even non-stoichiometric oxides. This means that the oxide film of the titanium material has a multi-layer structure. As for the process of forming this oxide film, it cannot simply be understood as a direct reaction between titanium and oxygen (or oxygen in the air). Many researchers have proposed various mechanisms. Workers in the former Soviet Union believed that hydride was first generated, and then a passive oxide film was formed on the hydride.
