Tantalum is a rare refractory metal belonging to the vanadium group, closely related to niobium and classified among heavy metals. Pure tantalum is highly malleable, can be easily stretched, rolled into thin sheets or wires, and offers excellent workability. At elevated temperatures, tantalum reacts with most non-metals, but forms a stable oxide layer when exposed to air, providing natural protection. It is highly resistant to most acids and only dissolves in hydrofluoric acid or molten salts.
Evek GmbH offers tantalum at attractive prices in our online store. Reach out to us for expert advice on metals.
Tantalum is predominantly used in the electronics industry for manufacturing compact, high-capacity capacitors. Thanks to its outstanding biocompatibility, it is also used for medical implants and surgical instruments. Its chemical resistance makes it valuable in the chemical industry for components such as heat exchangers and pumps. Additionally, tantalum is used as an alloying element in nickel-based superalloys to enhance strength at high temperatures.
Main uses of tantalum include:
- Microelectronics (capacitor production)
- Medical technology (implants and instruments)
- Chemical industry (heat exchangers, pumps)
- Nickel-based superalloys
Tantalum stands out for its:
- Excellent malleability and ductility
- High chemical resistance
- Stability in air
- Resistance to most acids
