Tantalum is a rare, refractory transition metal from the vanadium group, closely related to niobium and classified among the heavy metals. Pure tantalum is highly ductile, easy to stretch, and can be processed into sheets and wires. At elevated temperatures, it reacts with many non-metals, but forms a protective oxide layer when exposed to air. Tantalum is highly resistant to most acids, dissolving only in hydrofluoric acid or molten salt.

Tantalum is widely used in the electronics industry for manufacturing compact, high-performance capacitors. Its outstanding biocompatibility makes it ideal for medical implants and instruments, while its chemical resistance is valued in the chemical industry. Tantalum is also used as an alloying element in nickel-based superalloys to enhance high-temperature strength.
Main applications for tantalum include:
- Microelectronics (capacitor production)
- Medical field (implants and surgical instruments)
- Chemical industry (heat exchangers and pumps)
- Nickel-based superalloys
Key properties of tantalum:
- Excellent deformability and ductility
- Highly reactive
- Resistant to most acids
- Stable when exposed to air
