Feature
+
Titanium amalgam is made up of titanium and mercury, which form Ti3Hg under high temperature of 800°C in a sealed container. The alloy is then ground into a powder and pressed into the nickel belt while a layer of ZrAl16 alloy is pressed onto the other side. Below 500°C, the titanium amalgam does not decompose or release mercury. Hence, in the process of gas exhaustion, under conditions below 500°C, there is no incidence of mercury pollution. This makes it the most ideal solution to prevent mercury pollution in the lamp manufacturing industry.
After the manufacturing process, nickel belts are heated to 800°C or higher by high-frequency currents. Mercury atoms are subsequently discharged. This process is irreversible as titanium cannot absorb the mercury atoms released. The volume of titanium amalgam can be very precisely controlled. As ZrAl16 is a ‘good getter’ material, titanium amalgam also ensures a more complete vacuum which improves the lamp performance and life.
Application
+
Titanium amalgam has the same effect as pure mercury when used in the manufacture of lower-load straight fluorescent lamps or cold cathode lamps.
