Panxi main vanadium titanium iron and steel enterprise data show that panxi vanadium titanium magnetite in the comprehensive utilization rate of titanium resources, has reached 36.58% (on raw ore) above, a new high. Pangang group as the core, to the dragon python mining and metallurgy and peace co as the backbone of panxi resources comprehensive utilization enterprise, enhance the strategic orientation of vanadium and titanium resources comprehensive utilization, and increase investment in science and technology, science and technology research, improve panxi vanadium titanium magnetite comprehensive utilization, especially titanium concentrate scale increasing, the annual output reached 6.38 million tons, 2021 accounted for over 90% of the country. The comprehensive utilization rate of titanium resources, which people pay most attention to, has been steadily improved. Up to now, the comprehensive utilization rate of titanium resources relative to raw ore has reached more than 36.58%, some enterprises have reached about 38%. According to the prediction of relevant enterprises, during the "14th Five-Year plan", the comprehensive utilization rate of titanium resources will reach 40%. It is reported that Panxi vanadium titanium magnetite is rich in resources, Panxi national strategic resources innovation and development experimental zone, is the only approved establishment of comprehensive utilization of resources development experimental zone. The state has listed vanadium and titanium as strategic resources. Sichuan province attaches great importance to the comprehensive development and utilization of vanadium and titanium resources, regards vanadium and titanium as green and low-carbon advantage industries, and actively promotes the comprehensive development and utilization of vanadium and titanium resources. Under the strong support of national provinces and cities, through the joint efforts of vanadium titanium steel enterprises, Panxi is becoming the largest titanium chemical industry and titanium metal industry base in China.

With the development of vanadium titanomagnetite in panzhihua and deep mining, the particle size of useful minerals becomes fine, and fine grinding is required to obtain qualified iron and titanium concentrate, resulting in the increase of ultra-fine ilmenite in the process year by year. In actual production, the recovery effect of ultra-fine ilmenite is poor due to the limitation of existing high intensity magnetic + flotation process. The results show that the distribution rate of titanium with particle size less than 38μm is 65%, and that of titanium with particle size less than 19μm is 46%, resulting in a great waste of titanium resources. The recovery of ultrafine minerals has always been a world - class problem in the field of mineral processing. To improve the titanium resource recovery rate, concentration conquer thetime "technology, mining companies have free-standing self-improvement as a national strategy to support the development of science and technology, since 2012, with the domestic scientific research institutes, the ultrafine grained titanium iron ore recovery technology joint research, based on a large number of research literature, carried out the new process, new equipment, new drug development and testing. The research team experimented, analyzed data, looked for clues, and discussed the best process. After hundreds of technological breakthroughs, a new recovery process of ultra-fine ilmenite with high efficiency and energy saving has been successfully developed. Three national invention patents, including "Beneficiation Method of Ultra-fine Ilmenite", were proposed and formed. As an important supporting project, ultra-fine ilmenite recovery has been listed as a key RESEARCH and development project in Sichuan Province in 2021. In order to transform scientific and technological achievements into product advantages as soon as possible and lay the foundation for industrialization, the mining company built 10,000-ton industrial test line in 2021. The industrial test has achieved good results. The new process and new reagent have good adaptability to recovery of ilmenite with particle size less than 38μm, and the overall recovery rate is more than 50%. The recovery rate of ilmenite with particle size less than 19μm is over 90%, and the recovery of ultra-fine ilmenite has achieved a major breakthrough. In April, the mining company ultra-fine ilmenite high efficiency recovery demonstration line construction project of the first phase of the project commencement ceremony held in Xingmao Company. This marks that the industrialization of ultrafine ilmenite ore dressing process has entered the substantial stage and a new breakthrough in ultrafine ilmenite recovery technology has been achieved. Recycling will be completed and put into operation after the demonstration line each year more than 100000 tons of ultrafine grained titanium concentrate, the economic benefit of 150 million yuan, not only solve the ultrafine grained titanium iron ore industry recycling worldwide problem, promote the depth development of vanadium titanium magnetite resources in panxi region, but also to the nation and the world of ultrafine grained titanium iron ore efficient recycling industry play a good demonstration effect.

Titanium and titanium alloys have a series of important characteristics, such as high melting point, low density, high specific strength, corrosion resistance, non-toxic, harmless, biophile, no magnetic, etc., which have been widely used in the field of daily necessities. The characteristics of the titanium cup Health: no heavy metal precipitation, no metal taste, corrosion resistance; Environmental protection: pure titanium is harmless to human body and will not cause pollution to the earth and air environment; Antibacterial: Titanium cup can inhibit the growth of bacteria, fresh ability; Lightweight: the density of titanium metal is lower than steel, the same volume, the same strength, the weight of titanium metal products is lighter than steel products Natural color: titanium metal gives out natural color after technical treatment, without adding a drop of paint, to achieve the effect of no fading, no fading, no discoloration, can withstand the time of engraving, with age and new.

The European aircraft maker Airbus has urged the West not to impose an embargo on titanium imports from Russia. Guillaume Faury, head of the airline, believes the restrictions will not have a major impact on the Russian economy but will seriously damage global aviation. Foley made the announcement at the company's annual shareholder meeting on April 12. He called a ban on imports of Russian titanium, used to make modern airliners, "unacceptable" and suggested that any sanctions be dropped. Meanwhile, Airbus has been building titanium stockpiles for years, and if the West decides to impose sanctions on Russian titanium, it won't have an impact on the company's aircraft manufacturing business in the short term, Foley said. Titanium is virtually irreplaceable in aircraft manufacturing, where it is used to make engine screws, housings, wings, skins, pipes, fasteners and more. So far, it has not made it into the western sanctions package against Russia. Vsmpo-avisma, the world's largest titanium producer, is based in Russia. Before the crisis, the Russian company reportedly supplied up to 35 percent of Boeing's titanium needs, 65 percent of Airbus's, and 100 percent of Embraer's. But about a month ago, Boeing announced it was suspending its purchases of metals from Russia and would instead supply them from Japan, China and Kazakhstan. In addition, the US company has sharply reduced production due to quality problems with its new flagship Boeing 737 Max, delivering just 280 commercial jets to the market last year. Airbus is much more dependent on Russian titanium. The European aerospace manufacturer also plans to increase production of its A320 passenger jet, the 737's main rival that has taken a lot of market share from Boeing in recent years. At the end of March, reports said Airbus had begun looking for alternative sources for Russian titanium in case supplies were cut off. But airbus is clearly finding it hard to find a replacement. It should also not be forgotten that Airbus joined the EU sanctions against Russia, which included a ban on Russian airlines exporting aircraft, supplying spare parts and repairing and maintaining passenger jets. Therefore, in this case, Russia is highly likely to impose an embargo on Airbus. Asked by Lianhe Zaobao for comment, Aviation portal editor-in-chief Roman Gusarov said: "Russia has become interdependent with the world aviation industry by supplying titanium to the world's aviation giants. What's more, Russia does not export raw materials, but products that have already been stamped and roughed (airline producers fine-process them in their own factories). This is almost a whole industry chain, not just a piece of metal. But it must be understood here that the VSMpo-Avisma factory, which works for Boeing, Airbus and other airlines, is located in Sarda, a small town in the Urals. Russia still needs to stick to the fact that it is prepared to continue to supply titanium and titanium products and maintain its position in the supply chain." Airbus, meanwhile, does have a lot of inventory. In other words, even if Russia imposes an embargo, it will not affect the production of Airbus planes for some time. This is especially true given the decline in aircraft production and demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic. And it began to decline even before the pandemic. "In the short term, there is enough titanium to meet their needs because they have reduced their production schedule," says Roman Gusarov. But what next? Airbus and Boeing, two of the world's biggest manufacturers, get half their titanium from Russia. There is no substitute for such a large quantity. It will take a lot of time to restructure the supply chain." But it would be even more devastating for Russia if it refused to export titanium outright. Of course, this approach could create some local difficulties for the aviation industry. But in a few years, the world will organize new supply chains and invest in other countries, and Russia will be out of this cooperation for good, and it will never come back. Boeing recently said it had found alternative titanium suppliers, notably Japan and Kazakhstan. It's just that this article is talking about sponge titanium, sorry, it's just a rich ore that has to be separated from and then used to make titanium products. Where Boeing will do all this is questionable, since the entire titanium manufacturing chain is international. Even Russia is not a complete titanium producer. The ore can be mined somewhere in Africa or Latin America. This is a serious industrial chain, so it takes a lot of money to build it from scratch. In conclusion, it would be painful for aircraft manufacturers to leave Russian titanium, but Russian titanium is not the only option. This is an unprecedented downturn in the aviation market, so some European experts believe that Airbus can take this opportunity to completely cut ties with Russian titanium. Because, the American company has done that, and if he succeeds in cutting off Russian titanium while we are still using it, we will get pressure and blackmail from the Americans. Ditching Russian titanium in a downturn might thus minimise the damage to Airbus. The situation of Titanium in Russia can also be compared with rare earth resources in China. Decisions are hard and injuries are comprehensive, but which is more devastating, short-term harm or long-term or even permanent harm?

Titanium has the characteristics of light weight and high strength, and naturally becomes an indispensable and important raw material for the aviation industry. Russian state-owned VSMpo-Avisma is the world's largest supplier of titanium sponges and materials, accounting for a third of the titanium used by Boeing, compared with 50% for Airbus, the European aerospace giant. Like natural gas, Boeing of the United States has announced that it will not buy titanium from Russia, but Airbus of Europe has made it clear that it cannot do without Russian titanium in the short term. But for many aerospace and defence companies in the US and Europe, finding sources outside Russia has become a priority. Japanese titanium companies, following Russia's lead, have also taken orders and are working overtime to increase capacity. Hiromu Tomeba, corporate planning manager for Toho Titanium, was quoted as saying that his company has received a string of orders from customers for an additional 2,000-3,000 tonnes of Titanium sponge by the end of the year as the US airline industry looks for alternative suppliers from Russia. But Tobang Titanium's Japanese rival Osaka Titanium said in an interview that it had not received additional orders. Tomeba added that U.S. customers are asking us to expand supply because they seem to be worried about future purchases and want to increase inventory. They also want to prepare for the threat to business continuity after Boeing stopped buying from Russia. In order to meet customer demand. Tobon Titanium will make full use of additional capacity from its Saudi joint venture, which opens in 2019, and ship existing inventory from Japan to meet new orders. It is reported. Tobang Titanium's Saudi plant, originally intended to supply only non-aviation customers, is likely to be approved to supply aircraft manufacturers by the end of April. Tomeba said capacity utilization at the plant is expected to rise to 60 percent by June from 40 percent now, to 70 percent in the third quarter and possibly even higher next year. Bernstein analyst Douglas Harned also noted in a report last month that manufacturers had stockpiled titanium before the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine, but that supplies could run short by next year if current conditions continue.

According to the statistics of titanium zirconium hafnium branch of China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, the domestic sponge titanium output in 2021 was 139900 tons, a year-on-year increase of 13.8%; The output of various titanium processing materials totaled 136000 tons, with a year-on-year increase of 40.1%; Imported 13800 tons of sponge titanium, a year-on-year increase of 192.9%; The output of titanium ore was 2.857 million tons, with a year-on-year increase of 5% (people in the titanium ore production industry have questions and need to be further confirmed). With the decline of economic growth at home and abroad, the soaring price of bulk commodities, including magnesium ingots, and the comprehensive impact of the epidemic, the supply chain is facing many uncertain situations. It is amazing for people inside and outside the industry to achieve such a development speed! According to the data of the US Geological Survey, in 2020, the global production of sponge titanium was 210000 tons, and the global production capacity of sponge titanium was 341000 tons, with a year-on-year increase of 11.8%. It is estimated that the global production of sponge titanium will be 230000 tons in 2021, and China's production of sponge titanium accounts for more than 60% of the global production of sponge titanium, becoming a real major supplier of sponge titanium. In 2020, China's sponge titanium production capacity increased by 12% over 2019 to 177000 tons. In 2021, China's sponge titanium production capacity is expected to reach 200000 tons. In 2022, China's sponge titanium production capacity is still in the process of rapid expansion.

After more than ten years development, the cloud of titanium in the titanium ingots production equipment, technology innovation, production and marketing scale leading in domestic, reached the international advanced level, for the Chinese treasure wu do the superior titanium industry, create influential, the most competitive in the world, the leading domestic research and development of titanium production enterprises laid a solid foundation. In the future, cloud Titanium Company will focus on the low cost and high efficiency of the short process of electron beam cold bed melting furnace (EB furnace) and the variety and quality differentiation of vacuum consumable electric arc furnace (VAR furnace), shell coagulation furnace and ball powder machine by implementing the requirements of extreme professional development.

Boeing said on March 7 that it had suspended titanium purchases from Russia, while its main rival Airbus will continue to buy titanium from Russia, which is understood to be home to VSMPO-Avisma, the world's largest titanium supplier. Boeing says it has a large titanium inventory. Titanium is prized in the aerospace industry for its light weight, high strength and compatibility with the latest generation of carbon-fibre long-haul airliners. "We have suspended titanium purchases from Russia, and our titanium inventories and diversified sources provide an adequate supply for aircraft production," Boeing said in an email. The head of VSMPO-Avisma, which is controlled by Russian state-owned companies, slammed Boeing's decision to suspend the contract. Boeing renewed the contract four months ago at the Dubai Airshow, when it pledged to keep the Russian company as its largest titanium supplier. The two companies also agreed to increase usage at Ural Boeing Manufacturing, a forgings manufacturing joint venture in Russia's Ural Titanium Valley. Dmitry Osipov, CEO of VSMPO-Avisma, said in an emailed statement on Monday: "We deeply regret the suspension of our contract with our long-term partner. We are now adjusting our sales policy to other markets." It added that the company had been preparing for such an outcome for months. VSMPO-Avisma, which is understood to be 25 per cent owned by Russian state technology group Rostec, is not among the sanctions imposed by western countries against Russia. The company relies on aerospace for three-quarters of its sales. The potential disruption of Russian commodity supplies has put the spotlight on titanium, which is used in ships, cars and the nuclear industry as well as aviation. Cowen analyst Cai Von Rumohr said the availability of titanium does not pose a threat to Boeing's inventory in the near term, given the stock situation, and Boeing has been diversifying its supply sources since the Crimea incident in 2014. Von Rumohr has a "buy" rating on Boeing, but he lowered his price target to $230 from $265, citing near-term headwinds. Airbus: Business as usual In France, Airbus said it would continue to source titanium from Russia and other countries. The company said in an emailed statement that it also obtained titanium indirectly through tier 1 suppliers and that all measures were in compliance with sanctions. The European aircraft maker said it sourced half of its titanium supply from Russia, while VSMPO-Avisma provided about a third of Boeing's supply. Airbus imports titanium from Russia mainly from VSMPO-Avisma, while some titanium components for landing gear are supplied by Hydromash, a company based in Nizhny Novgorod, Lower Russia, industry sources said. The company has said its overall ability to ramp up jet production depends on the availability of raw materials such as titanium. According to Airbus's 2019 annual report, its NH90 and Tiger military helicopter programs rely on titanium supplies from Russia. Airbus did not immediately respond to media inquiries about the status of the VSMPO-Avisma contract.

There is love in the world. At present, the baoji epidemic outbreak is serious and complex, affecting everyone's heart, but also inspires the love of entrepreneurs. On March 14, Baoji Xinticheng Metal Composite Material Co., Ltd. donated anti-epidemic materials to the Management Committee of Meixian Economic and Development Zone. During the special period, the caring enterprises gave full play to their advantages and supported the front-line anti-epidemic efforts, demonstrating the social responsibility and responsibility of local enterprises. Baoji New Titanium Cheng Metal Composite Material Co., Ltd. donated 50,000 disposable medical masks to the Management Committee of Meixian Economic and Development Zone, practicing social responsibility with practical actions, actively participating in charitable donations, sharing weal and adversity, helping each other and working together to fight against the epidemic. The person in charge of Baoji New titanium cheng Metal composite Material Co., Ltd. said that the front-line anti-epidemic staff in the face of the epidemic retrograde, stick to their posts day and night, not all dangerous, people and small family for everyone, to safeguard the people's lives and health. Enterprises have the responsibility and obligation to give due support and care, and hope to cheer up the anonymous guardians who always stick to the front line of epidemic prevention and control and fight the epidemic together. Unite as one, unite as one, fight against the epidemic, you and I together. Baoji epidemic "treasure" a "shaanxi" passed.

From a global perspective, titanium material demand mainly comes from high-end fields, among which aerospace industry accounts for as much as 46% of titanium material consumption; The domestic demand for titanium materials shows a trend of polarization. Low-end titanium materials are mainly used in civil fields such as chemical industry, while high-end titanium materials are mainly used in aerospace, shipbuilding and other fields. On the product level, high-end titanium materials are mainly used for aero-engine blades, fuselage materials and aviation fasteners, while civil titanium materials are mainly used for logging tools, downhole packers and oil sleeves in the petrochemical industry. In 2019, 51% of titanium materials in the domestic market were used in the chemical industry, 18% in aerospace, and 8% in shipbuilding and Marine engineering. According to the prospectus of West Superconductor, the supply of west Superconductor titanium materials is mainly military titanium materials such as aviation and ships, and the purchased titanium sponge is mainly grade 0, while the specifications of titanium sponge purchased for civil titanium alloy are relatively low. Therefore, the price difference between grade 0 sponge titanium and low grade sponge titanium can reflect the relative strength of military and civilian titanium materials.

The escalating conflict between Russia and Ukraine on February 24 raised concerns about the titanium supply chain, with major producers of raw materials, metals and alloys located on the two countries' border and serving customers around the world. Sanctions and a raw material embargo could threaten much of the sponge titanium market. Russia's VSMpo-Avisma, which supplies much of the titanium used in the skins of Airbus and Boeing aircraft, is the world's largest producer of titanium sponge, with an annual capacity of 34,000 tonnes. "I don't think we are there yet, but if [the crisis] intensifies and responds to sanctions I think Russia could retaliate against metals exports," said one trader close to Avisma. "The interesting thing is that Both Airbus and Boeing depend on Avisma. We know they have approached their competitors because of the political situation." Other sponge producers, such as Toho Titanium of Japan, ATI Metals and RTI International Metals of the United States, can serve as alternative sources of Titanium products. The recent acquisitions of Aubert & Duval by Safran and Airbus, the European aerospace manufacturers, suggest they are rethinking their metals supply chains. But given avisma's market share and the size of its product base, it will be hard to separate entirely from Avisma. In November 2021, Boeing signed an agreement with Avisma to "expand their strategic partnership in the supply and development of new alloys and technologies." Under the agreement, Avisma "will continue to be the largest supplier of titanium to Boeing commercial aircraft today and in the future," the Russian company said at the time. Avisma has since signed new titanium supply agreements with Aernnova Aerospace of Spain and Barnes Aerospace of the UK for 2028 and 2026 respectively. Supply constraints on ilmenite have increased competition for scrap As international aerospace companies assess their access to Russian titanium, questions are also being raised about Russia's access to the raw material - ilmenite in particular. Russia had been importing ilmenite from Ukraine until President Volodymyr Zelensky recently banned exports to Russia. This has given new impetus to the search for alternative feedstocks from African mines and generated new activity in the already tight titanium scrap market. As a result, the price of Russian-grade ilmenite rose to $6.75-7.20 per kg in Rotterdam yesterday from $6.50-6.90 per kg on February 17. "There are some serious problems in getting enough ilmenite at Avisma," said one trader. "There is a shortage, so they are looking for scrap. They've been in touch with us. "Supplies of vacuum-grade waste have been tight for months, and this has made matters worse."

"In the 1960s, a Chinese fisherman was fishing in the sea and couldn't pull up his net. It turned out that he had netted an advanced foreign aircraft. The plane landed off the coast of China at some point. The aluminum alloy was corroded, there was not much stainless steel left, but there was one piece of metal that was intact, that was bright, that was corroded so well -- titanium alloy." Cao Chunxiao, the 87-year-old founder of titanium alloy research and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, tells the story like a family treasure. Not long ago, he introduced the little-known history of China's titanium alloy development in his lecture on Science and Innovation China. Cao started researching titanium alloys 65 years ago as soon as he graduated from Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Titanium alloy was a new material invented in the United States at the time to make aircraft engines and propeller hubs. "Titanium alloy is not only resistant to corrosion, its average density is around 4.5×103kg, which is much lighter than 7.85×103kg steel, but its strength is similar to that of steel." Cao said titanium makes the aircraft fly faster and more flexibly. Next, Cao Chunxiao developed titanium alloys containing neodymium, a rare earth element, which are more heat resistant and stronger. China's military titanium alloy level is catching up. At the same time, The use of titanium alloy in China's civil field has also surged, becoming a big country of titanium alloy. "Titanium alloy corrosion resistance, it with the human body will not affect each other to cause allergies, so people's shoulder joint is bad, bad skull, can use titanium alloy to replace; "Implants are made of titanium alloy, which is fastened to the gums, and then you have porcelain teeth on top so you can eat anything." 'Titanium can also be used as a tennis racket, a thermos cup, a frying pan... Cao's dentures and pacemakers also contain titanium alloy. "What I do improves the quality of my life," he laughs.

With the further exploration of deep space, hydrogen-oxygen engine has attracted more and more attention for its advantages of large thrust, high stability and no pollution. As an important material of cryogenic structure of hydrogen-oxygen engine, cryogenic titanium alloy directly affects the comprehensive performance of hydrogen-oxygen engine. Taking TA7ELI, TC4ELI and CT20 as the key objects, the development history and research status of cryogenic titanium alloys were introduced in detail, and the properties of cryogenic titanium alloys widely used in various countries were comprehensively compared. Meanwhile, the deformation mechanism and failure forms of cryogenic titanium alloys at different temperatures were introduced. In addition, the main forming process of low temperature titanium alloy is discussed in detail. Finally, based on the above introduction, it is suggested that the cryogenic titanium alloy should be developed in three directions: higher performance, lower cost and new forming process. With the further development of space industry and the continuous exploration of deep space, the performance requirements of spacecraft structural parts for cryogenic materials are further improved. On the one hand, the spacecraft structural materials must have enough strength and toughness and excellent thermal properties at low temperature; On the other hand, considering the complexity of the shape of spacecraft structural parts, the material must have good machinability. Compared with traditional low temperature materials, titanium alloy has higher yield strength at low temperature, more than 3 times of stainless steel, while its density is only 1/4 to 1/2 of stainless steel. In addition, titanium alloy also has a series of advantages such as low thermal conductivity, small coefficient of expansion, no magnetism, so it is very suitable for the application of new low temperature materials in the field of aerospace. At present, cryogenic titanium alloy has been initially applied in the field of liquid rocket engine, mainly as hydrogen storage tank of hydrogen and oxygen engine, hydrogen pump impeller and other structural materials, greatly improving the thrust-weight ratio, working life and reliability of liquid rocket engine. The biggest problem in the application of low temperature titanium alloy is that the elongation and fracture toughness of titanium alloy are greatly reduced at low temperature, showing obvious low temperature brittleness. Therefore, how to reduce the low temperature brittleness of titanium alloy and improve the toughness and plasticity of titanium alloy at low temperature has become the top priority in the research of low temperature titanium alloy. In order to solve this problem, domestic and foreign scholars have carried out a large number of studies, and found that the low temperature performance of titanium alloys can be effectively improved by reducing the content of C, H, O and other gap elements and reducing the content of aluminum. Through these two methods, a series of new low temperature titanium alloys with excellent properties have been developed at home and abroad.

Characteristics and advantages of 3D printed titanium interbody fusion apparatus: 1. Macro structure It has good mechanical strength, corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. By adjusting the size of the micropores, the 3D-printed titanium interbody fusion instrument has an elastic modulus similar to cortical and cancellous bone of the vertebral body. 3D printed titanium alloy interbody fusion device conforms to the anatomical shape of upper and lower endplates between vertebral bodies, which is conducive to full contact with the upper and lower endplates, convenient placement, good initial stability, and no need to worry about the displacement of the fusion device. The surface roughness process provides a micron and nanoscale surface roughness that maximizes the anchoring between bone and implant surfaces, thereby improving bone integration. Studies have shown that surface roughness has beneficial effects on cell differentiation and proliferation. 2. Microstructure Human cortical bone has a porosity of 5-10%, while cancellous bone has a porosity of 75-90%. Cancellous bone is highly porous, constructed of tightly connected pores ranging from 300 μm to 1000μm in diameter. Current studies suggest that the minimum pore size of bone tissue growth is 100μm, and the critical size of capillary angiogenesis is 300-400μm, and the effect of bone growth is better when the pore size is 300-1000μm. The interconnectivity of pores in porous titanium structure is conducive to bone growth. In vitro studies have shown that human stem cells cultured on similar porous titanium structures have greater osteoblast differentiation ability compared to solid titanium surfaces. This product has a titanium alloy bionic bone trabecular structure, with a designed porosity of 70-80% and an aperture of 300-800um, which can effectively provide channels for bone tissue growth and a surface conducive to cell adhesion, facilitating new bone to grow into the fusion device through micropores and adhere to the metal bone trabecular surface, forming a tight bone-endoplant combination. 3. Excellent visualization High radiographic visibility enables better contour display, facilitating clear intraoperative and postoperative observation of the fusion apparatus, assessing the contact between the vertebral endplate and the implant, and bone fusion. X-ray implants were clearly visible, CT scans had no scattering, MRI artifacts were reduced, and tantalum markers were not scattered. 4. Clinical application Good titanium alloy bionic bone trabecular structure design makes the fusion device without bone grafting (no bone grafting window), animal tests and clinical trials show that the product can allow adjacent bone tissue to grow into it freely, and finally achieve bone fusion. The graft-free window design facilitates surgical operation and reduces the possibility of contamination of the fusion apparatus, thereby reducing the chance of surgical infection. The product has complete models and specifications, which can not only meet the needs of cervical and lumbar interbody fusion surgery, but also meet the needs of ALIF, TLIF, OLIF and other surgical methods.
