· Ti1 B2

TiB₂ (titanium diboride) is a ceramic compound belonging to the transition metal diboride family, characterized by exceptional hardness and thermal stability. It is primarily used in wear-resistant applications, cutting tools, and abrasive coatings in aerospace and manufacturing industries, where its combination of hardness and chemical inertness makes it superior to conventional carbide tools in high-speed machining. TiB₂ is also explored for armor applications and as a reinforcing phase in composite materials due to its outstanding strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to thermal shock.

Export Control

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
