Tantalum is a rare, refractory transition metal from the vanadium group, closely related to niobium and classified as a heavy metal. Pure tantalum is highly malleable and ductile, making it easy to roll into sheets and wires. At elevated temperatures, it reacts with most non-metals, but forms a protective oxide layer in air. Tantalum is resistant to most acids, only dissolving in hydrofluoric acid and molten salts.
In the Evek GmbH online shop, you will find tantalum at competitive prices. Reach out to us for expert advice in the metal industry.
Tantalum is primarily used in electronics for the production of compact, high-performance capacitors. Thanks to its excellent biocompatibility, it is also used for medical implants and instruments. Its chemical resistance makes it valuable in the chemical industry, and as an alloying element, tantalum enhances the strength of nickel-based superalloys at high temperatures.
Main applications for tantalum include:
- Microelectronics (capacitor manufacturing)
- Medical field (implants and instruments)
- Chemical industry (heat exchangers and pumps)
- Nickel-based superalloys
Key properties of tantalum:
- Excellent malleability and ductility
- High reactivity
- Resistance to most acids
- Stable in air
