What is Titanium Silicide TiSi2 Powder?

Recently, covid 19 outbreak spreads in Shanghai, China. There are more than 25,000 new asymptomatic domestic infections every day. China is implementing a dynamic zero-out policy. A leading respiratory expert said the key to COVID-19 prevention and control is to minimize transmission and fatality rate. Omicron has a low case fatality rate but is highly transmissible and can still claim many lives in large outbreaks. "Total openness is not applicable in China.  For China, we should keep to the dynamic zero-out and gradually open up."  

However, "dynamic zero clearance" is not the pursuit of complete "zero infection".  As the Novel Coronavirus has its own uniqueness and strong concealment, there may be no way to prevent the detection of cases at present, but rapid detection and prompt treatment must be carried out, as soon as one case is found, one case will be dealt with.  

The situation in Shanghai is serious. As the financial center of China, Shanghai is a very important city, and the outbreak of the epidemic in Shanghai will put a great impact on China's economy.  The current task is to contain the spread of the epidemic as soon as possible, to achieve social zero so that Shanghai's life and economy quickly return to normal.  

As China plays an important role in the global supply chain, the outbreak will have a significant impact on the supply and prices of many TiSi2 Powder.

Introduction to Titanium Silicide TiSi2 Powder
Titanium disilicide with the chemical formula TiSi2 is an inorganic compound of titanium and silicon. Titanium silicide is a dark gray square crystal, which can be made into powder and target material. It is a metallic silicide. Titanium and silicon metals are the raw materials. It has high conductivity and high-temperature stability. 
 
Physicochemical Properties of Titanium Silicide TiSi2 Powder
Among the metal silicides (such as TiSi2, NiSi, CoSi2, WSi2, TaSi2, and MoSi2) widely studied, titanium silicide has very ideal properties including high electrical conductivity, high selectivity, good thermal stability, good Si adsorption, good process adaptability and low interference to silicon connection parameters.

What is Si?
Silicon (atomic symbol Si, atomic number 14) is an element of unit P in group 14 of Period 3, with an atomic mass of 28.085. By weight, silicon makes up 25.7 percent of the earth's crust and is the second most abundant element after oxygen. These metals rarely exist in pure crystal form and are usually made from an iron-silicon alloy called ferrosilicon.  Element Silicon (or silicon dioxide), such as sand, is the main component of glass, which is one of the cheapest materials and has excellent mechanical, optical, thermal, and electrical properties. Ultra-pure silicon can be doped with boron, gallium, phosphorus, or arsenic to produce silicon, which is used in transistors, solar cells, rectifiers, and other solid-state devices widely used in the electronics industry.
 
What is Ti?
Titanium (atomic symbol Ti, atomic number 22) is a group D element of the 4th period, with an atomic mass of 47.867. In its basic form, titanium has a silver-gray white metallic appearance. Titanium is chemically and physically similar to zirconium, which has the same number of valence electrons and belongs to the same group in the periodic table. There are five naturally occurring isotopes of titanium: 46Ti to 50Ti, with 48Ti being the most abundant (73.8%). Titanium is found in igneous rock and its sediments. 
 
Production methods of Titanium Silicide TiSi2 Powder
Titanium disilicide can be prepared by reaction of titanium or titanium hydride with silicon. 
Ti + 2Si → TiSi2
It may also be ignited by aluminum powder, sulfur, silicon dioxide, and titanium dioxide or potassium hexafluortitanate K2TiF6, by electrolysis of a melt of potassium hexafluortitanate and titanium dioxide, or by titanium and silicon tetrachloride. 
 
Another method is to react titanium tetrachloride with silane, dichlorosilane, or silicon. 
TiCl4 + 2SiH4 → TiSi2 + 4HCl + 2H2
TiCl4 + 2SiH2Cl2 + 2H2 → TiS2 + 8HCl
TiCl4 + 3Si → TiSi2 + SiCl4
 
Applications of Titanium Silicide TiSi2 Powder
Titanium silicide is used in the semiconductor industry. It is usually grown on silicon and polysilicon wires by self-aligning silicide technology to reduce the thin layer resistance of local transistor connections. In the microelectronics industry, it is commonly used in the C54 stage.
Titanium silicide is used for the source, gate, leak contacts, and local interconnections in CMOS integrated circuits. In these applications, it is important that the titanium silicide phase has low resistivity (< 20μ ω -cm) and does not agglomerate during high-temperature treatment.  The Ti/Si system has two silicide phases for electronic applications, a high resistivity C49-TiSi2 (60-70 μ ω -cm) formed at 600-700 °C and low resistivity (15-20 μ ω -cm) C54-TiSi2 formed at 700-850 °C.

Twitter recently announced that it had reached an agreement with Musk to take full ownership of the company for $54.20 per share, or about $44 billion in cash.  After the deal, Twitter will become a privately held company. The deal, which has been unanimously approved by Twitter's board but still requires shareholder and regulatory approvals, is expected to close in 2022.  

After Tesla CEO Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter was finalized, Twitter founder Jack Dorsey sent out a series of six tweets expressing his expectations for Musk.  

Dorsey called Twitter his biggest regret, saying, “The idea and service is all that matters to me, and I will do whatever it takes to protect both. Twitter as a company has always been my sole issue and my biggest regret. It has been owned by Wall Street and the ad model. Taking it back from Wall Street is the correct first step.  

"In principle, I don't believe anyone should own or run Twitter," Dorsey goes on. He thinks the service is a public good.

He called Musk a "singular solution" to Twitter's problems, "Elon's goal of creating a platform that is" Maximally trusted and inclusive "is the right one." He wrote, "Thank you both for getting the company out of an impossible situation. This is the right path...  I believe it with all my heart."

Besides, because of the ever-changing international situation, the supply and prices of international bulk TiSi2 Powder are still very uncertain.
