Tantalum is a rare, heavy refractory metal from the vanadium group, closely related to niobium. Pure tantalum is highly formable, making it easy to draw into wire or roll into sheets. At elevated temperatures, it reacts with most non-metals, but in air, it develops a protective oxide coating. Tantalum is resistant to most acids and only dissolves in hydrofluoric acid or molten salts.
We offer tantalum at competitive prices in the Evek GmbH online shop. Reach out to us for expert advice on metals.
Tantalum is primarily used in electronics for manufacturing compact, high-performance capacitors. Thanks to its biocompatibility, it’s also used for medical implants and instruments. Its chemical resistance makes it valuable for the chemical industry, and it's added to nickel-based superalloys to enhance high-temperature strength.
Main applications for tantalum include:
- Microelectronics (capacitor production);
- Medical field (implants and tools);
- Chemical industry (heat exchangers, pumps);
- Nickel superalloys.
Tantalum stands out for its:
- Excellent deformability and ductility;
- Reactivity;
- High acid resistance;
- Stability in air.
