Titanium Carbide (TiC) PowderThe chemical formula for Titan carbide TiC. It is a steely-gray, metallic-glittering crystal. It has both thermal and electrical conductivity. The electrical conductivity of the crystal decreases as the temperature increases, giving it the appearance of a medal. It has a high melting temperature and is hard. Diamond is the hardest compound with a microhardness rating of 2850kg/mm2. The lattice coefficient a = 4.173x10-8cm. Melting Point 3150, Boiling Point 4820, Relative Density 4.9. TiN has the same lattice as TiO and they have the exact same parameters. A series of solids can form between them. As the temperature is raised above 1500, C slowly disappears. Above 1200, Ti(C N) carbonnitride reacts in N2 to produce a variable structure. The oxidation process of TiC at 800 is slow, but powder TiC in O2 can be burnt at 600 to produce TiO2 or CO2. By 1200, the reaction between O2 gas and TiO2 will produce CO2. It doesn't react with the water, but it can generate CO and TiO2 when heated above 700 degrees. It does not react to CO, but it reacts at 1200 with CO2 to produce TiO2 & CO.

Titanium Carbide powder preparation methods
1. Carbothermic reduction
At 1700-2100 TiO2 was reduced by carbon black, with the following chemical reaction formula: TiO2(S), 3C(s), TiC(S), and 2CO(g).
2. Direct carbonization method
TiC is made by combining titanium powder and carbon dioxide powder.
Ti(s)+C(s)=TiC
The application of this method, due to the difficulty in preparing Ti powder submicron, is limited. The reaction above takes between 5 and 20 hours to complete. It is also difficult to control the reaction, which leads to the reactants agglomerating. Further grinding is required to produce fine TiC powder. Purifying the fine powder by chemical means is required to get a purer product.
3. Chemical vapor deposition
The method uses the reaction between TiCl4,H2 and C.
TiCl4(g)+2H2(g)+C(s)=TiC(g)+4HCl(l)
The monofilaments are made of carbon or tungsten. TiC crystals are grown directly on monofilaments. The yield of TiC powders and, sometimes, even the quality are severely limited by this method.
4. Sol-gel method
The invention concerns a method to prepare small particle-size products by fully dispersing and mixing materials with solution. The product has good chemical homogeneity, a small particle size and narrow distribution. It also requires a low heat treatment temperature. However, the synthesis is complex and the drying shrinkage large.
5. Microwave method
Microwave energy is used to heat the material using nano TiO2 as well as carbon black. It is the dielectric losses of materials that are used in high-frequency electric fields to convert microwave energy into heating energy.
TiO2+3C=TiC+2CO(g)

Titanium Carbide Powder (TiC): Applications
1. Other fields include cutting tools, wear-resistant coats, mold manufacture, etc.
2. Materials for powder metallurgy production of ceramics or hard metals such as drawing films, hard alloys dies, etc. Polyphase ceramics have applications in aerospace components like gas tanks, engines and turbine rotors.
3. As a material for coatings it is used to make diamond coatings as well as tritium anticoatings on fusion reactors.
