Tantalum is a rare high-melting transition metal from the vanadium group. It is similar to niobium and is classified as a heavy metal. Pure tantalum has good ductility, can be stretched well, and thus rolled into sheets and wires. At high temperatures, tantalum reacts with most nonmetals. In air, it forms a protective oxide layer. Tantal rod is resistant to most acids. Tantalum metal is only soluble in hydrofluoric acid and molten salts.

Tantalum rod is mainly used in electronics for manufacturing very small high-performance capacitors. Due to its excellent biocompatibility, tantalum metal is used to make medical implants and instruments. Furthermore, the metal is used in the chemical industry due to its chemical resistance. To increase the strength of the material at high temperatures, tantalum is used as an alloying additive for nickel-based superalloys.

The main application areas of tantalum are:

• Microelectronics (manufacturing of capacitors);
• Medicine (production of implants and instruments);
• Chemical industry (heat exchangers and pumps);
• Nickel superalloys.

Tantalum is characterized by:

• good ductility and malleability;
• reactivity;
• resistance to most acids;
• stability in air.
