Short answer: Tantalum is a rare refractory metal with a melting point near 3017 C and outstanding resistance to most acids and to body fluids, so it serves capacitors, medical implants and chemical equipment linings, usually supplied as pure tantalum or Ta-2.5W with certificate, and it joins the tungsten and molybdenum guides for corrosion-proof high-heat duty.
At a Glance
What Tantalum Is
Tantalum resists acids and the body, with the refractory basis in our Nickel Alloy Grades Guide; corrosion notes are in our Corrosion Resistance Guide.
Properties and Use
Tantalum serves electronics, medical and chemical duty, with the medical context in our Medical Implants Guide and the electronics context in our Electronics Guide; the chemical context is in our Chemical Processing Guide.
Fabrication
Tantalum is formed, welded and can be spun, with machining in our Machining Guide and joining in our Welding Joining Guide; finish is in our Surface Treatment Guide.
Quality and Sourcing
Refractory stock is checked by inspection, with methods in our Quality Inspection Guide; buyers confirm grade via our Mill Test Certificate Guide and pack per our Export Packing Guide.
