Tantalum is a rare, high-melting transition metal from the vanadium group, closely related to niobium and classified as a heavy metal. Pure tantalum is highly ductile, making it easy to draw into wires or roll into sheets. At elevated temperatures, it reacts with most non-metals, but when exposed to air, it forms a stable, protective oxide layer. Tantalum is resistant to most acids and only dissolves in hydrofluoric acid and molten salts.
At Evek GmbH, you’ll find tantalum at an affordable price. Reach out to us for expert advice on metals.
Tantalum is primarily used in electronics for the production of compact, high-performance capacitors. Its outstanding biocompatibility makes it ideal for medical implants and surgical instruments. Additionally, its chemical resistance makes it valuable in the chemical industry, and it serves as an alloying element in nickel-based superalloys to enhance strength at high temperatures.
Main uses of tantalum include:
- Microelectronics (capacitor manufacturing)
- Medical sector (implants and instruments)
- Chemical industry (heat exchangers and pumps)
- Nickel-based superalloys
Key properties of tantalum:
- Excellent ductility and malleability
- High chemical resistance
- Stable in air
- Resistant to most acids
