Useful Information of Machined Tantalum
Tantalum was discovered by Swedish chemist AG Ekeberg in 1802, it is mainly present in tantalite and co-exists with niobium. Tantalum has moderate hardness and is full of ductility and can be drawn into filament thin foil. Tantalum has excellent chemical properties and very high corrosion resistance; it also has high melting point. Due to its excellent corrosion resistance, tantalum is widely used in electronics, metallurgy, steel, chemical, carbide, atomic energy, superconducting technology, automotive electronics, aerospace and medical industry. Tantalum solid products can be produced by arc cast or PM. Here we introduce the applications and basic information for shaped tantalum products Tantalum plate , strip, foil: Tantalum plate has very strong corrosion resistance, which is second only to gold and platinum. Therefore, tantalum plate is widely used in chemical reaction equipment such as the coating of reactor, valves, heat exchangers, protection systems and water tanks. ...
