Chemical properties
- Reaction with water
Reacts strongly with water and hydrolyzes with a large amount of heat generation.
Example: TiCl4+H2O→HCl+Ti(OH)nClx - Reaction with alcohol
Example: TiCl4+4ROH+4NH3→Ti(OR)4+4NH4Cl - Corrosivity
Almost no corrosiveness to iron at room temperature. It is quite corrosive at 200°C or higher.
Corrosion by HCI formed by the reaction with moisture is significant, and moisture in pipes and containers should be carefully removed.
