Tantalum is a rare, heavy refractory metal from the vanadium group, closely related to niobium. It offers good formability, making it suitable for rolling into sheets and drawing into wires. At elevated temperatures, tantalum reacts with many non-metals but forms a stable oxide layer when exposed to air, enhancing its corrosion resistance. Tantalum rods are highly resistant to most acids and are only soluble in hydrofluoric acid and molten salts.

Tantalum rods are widely used in electronics, especially for manufacturing compact, high-performance capacitors. Thanks to its excellent biocompatibility, tantalum is also utilized in medical implants and instruments. Its robust chemical resistance makes it ideal for the chemical industry, and it is often added to nickel-based superalloys to improve their strength at high temperatures.

Main applications for tantalum include:

• Microelectronics (capacitor production);
• Medical field (implants and instruments);
• Chemical industry (heat exchangers and pumps);
• Nickel-based superalloys.

Key properties of tantalum:

• Excellent formability and ductility;
• High reactivity;
• Strong resistance to most acids;
• Stable when exposed to air.
