Overview
Titanium heptoxide (Ti₄O₇) belongs to the Magnéli phase series of substoichiometric titanium oxides. It exhibits excellent electrical conductivity at room temperature – the best among the TiₙO₂ₙ₋₁ series – combined with high chemical stability and corrosion resistance. Its bulk density is typically 3.15–3.18 g/cm³ for the pure phase, while our product has a bulk density of 3.6–4.3 g/cm³, indicating a dense, well‑crystallized material.
Key Properties
Good room‑temperature conductivity (resistivity 200–600 µΩ·m) – comparable to graphite or some metals.
Outstanding chemical stability – resistant to acids, alkalis, and many corrosive media.
High corrosion resistance – ideal for harsh environments.
Fine particle size (≤50 µm) enables easy dispersion in coatings, composites, and electrode formulations.
High purity (≥95% Ti₄O₇) ensures consistent performance.
Applications
Electrode materials: Used in batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells due to its conductivity and stability.
Corrosion‑resistant coatings: Provides a conductive, protective layer for metallic substrates.
Electronic components: As a conductive filler in pastes and inks.
Catalysis: Support material for catalysts in electrochemical and chemical processes.
Advanced ceramics: Component in conductive ceramics and sensors.
Handling and Storage
Store in a dry, sealed container away from moisture and aggressive chemicals.
Handle with standard powder processing precautions (dust mask, gloves, safety goggles).
Avoid prolonged exposure to high humidity to prevent surface contamination.
Packaging
Available in 100 g, 500 g, 1 kg, and 5 kg containers. Custom packaging on request.
Quality Assurance
