Tantalum is a rare refractory metal from the vanadium group, closely related to niobium and classified as a heavy metal. Pure tantalum is highly malleable, allowing it to be easily drawn into wires or rolled into sheets. At elevated temperatures, it reacts with most non-metals, but forms a protective oxide layer when exposed to air, making it very resistant to most acids. Tantalum only dissolves in hydrofluoric acid or molten salts.

Tantalum is primarily used in electronics for manufacturing compact, high-performance capacitors. Its excellent biocompatibility makes it ideal for medical implants and instruments. Thanks to its chemical resistance, tantalum is also used in the chemical industry, and it serves as an alloying element in nickel-based superalloys for enhanced high-temperature strength.
Key applications for tantalum include:
- Microelectronics (capacitor production)
- Medical industry (implants and instruments)
- Chemical industry (heat exchangers and pumps)
- Nickel superalloys
Tantalum stands out for its:
- Excellent malleability and ductility
- High reactivity
- Resistance to most acids
- Stability in air
