This titanium alloy powder requires anhydrous, inert gas-regulated storage and handling to prevent oxidation and contamination prior to melt validation. Processing is optimized for selective laser melting, laser solid forming, or electron beam melting within additive manufacturing workflows.
- Powder Storage and Handling: Store under anhydrous inert atmosphere and keep containers tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption and oxidation.
- Processing Atmosphere: Conduct powder handling and build chamber operations under inert gas regulation to maintain powder purity and flow characteristics.
- Particle Size Control: Ensure particle size distribution meets D50 30-40 μm and sphericity ≥0.9 for defect-free densification in powder bed fusion.
- Post-Processing Heat Treatment: Apply appropriate heat treatment to achieve specified room-temperature and high-temperature mechanical properties.
- Avoid Contamination: Prevent any exposure to ambient humidity or oxygen that could compromise crack propagation resistance and structural integrity.
What post-heat-treatment mechanical properties does ATOMFAIR BT20 titanium alloy powder provide at elevated temperatures?
ATOMFAIR BT20 is engineered for high thermal stability and load-bearing integrity. After heat treatment, it delivers tensile strength ≥1050 MPa, yield strength ≥950 MPa, and elongation ≥10.0% at room temperature; at 500 °C, tensile strength is ≥750 MPa, yield strength ≥600 MPa, and elongation ≥14.0%; at 600 °C, tensile strength is ≥600 MPa, yield strength ≥400 MPa, and elongation ≥15.0%. Its stated application scope includes aircraft and engine parts operating below 500 °C for extended durations and welded load-bearing structural parts.
Which additive manufacturing processes and applications are compatible with ATOMFAIR BT20 titanium alloy powder?
BT20 is optimized for Selective Laser Melting (SLM), Laser Solid Forming (LSF), and Electron Beam Melting (EBM) build chambers. Its spherical factor ≥0.9 and powder flowability ≤35 s per standard measurement volume support smooth re-coating and deposition homogeneity in deep powder bed printers. The material is intended for aerospace additive manufacturing and advanced materials research, particularly aircraft and engine parts operating below 500 °C for extended durations, and is supplied in 1 kg grades of 15–53 μm and 53–150 μm.
What handling and storage conditions are required for ATOMFAIR BT20 titanium alloy powder?
BT20 must be handled and stored under anhydrous, gas-regulated laboratory protocols, with containers kept tightly sealed or handled only within an anhydrous inert environment. This prevents powder contamination and early oxidation before melt validation. The controlled interstitial limits, including O ≤0.12%, N ≤0.03%, and H ≤0.015%, and the climate-isolated packaging are designed to preserve the alloy chemistry against ambient environmental interaction.
Atomfair BT20 Titanium Alloy Powder is a spherical, additive-manufacturing-grade powder with controlled chemistry (Al, Zr, Mo, V) and tight interstitial limits, delivering high-temperature tensile strength ≥750 MPa at 500°C and sphericity ≥0.9 for consistent powder bed density. Its operational advantages are offset by mandatory anhydrous, inert-atmosphere storage and handling to prevent oxidation and contamination, making it suitable only for controlled laboratory or industrial AM environments.
Positive
- High-temperature structural integrity: Engineered for load-bearing applications up to 500°C, with tensile strength ≥750 MPa and yield strength ≥600 MPa at that temperature, meeting aerospace-grade durability requirements.
- Premium powder flowability and sphericity: Sphericity ≥0.9 and flowability ≤35 s ensure smooth recoating, uniform deposition, and consistent densification in laser powder bed fusion processes.
Trade-offs
- Strict anhydrous handling required: Powder must be stored and handled exclusively under anhydrous, inert-gas conditions to prevent moisture uptake and premature oxidation, requiring dedicated glovebox or gas-regulated infrastructure.
- Sensitive to interstitial contamination: Tight thresholds on oxygen (≤0.12 wt%), nitrogen (≤0.03 wt%), and hydrogen (≤0.015 wt%) demand rigorous process control during storage and printing to avoid embrittlement or crack formation.
