Tantalum Compounds And Catalysts

Tantalum Compounds & Catalysts Applications

Tantalum is a lustrous, silvery metal that exhibits high corrosion resistance. One principal use of tantalum is in the production of electronic components. An oxide layer forms on its surface and functions as an insulating (dielectric) barrier. Tantalum can be used to coat other metals with an extremely thin layer, thereby achieving high capacitance in compact volumes. Consequently, tantalum capacitors are employed in portable electronic devices such as mobile telephones.

Because tantalum does not trigger immune responses in mammals, it is widely applied in the manufacture of surgical implants. It can replace bone, for example in skull plates; as a film or wire, it reconnects severed nerves; and as woven gauze, it reinforces abdominal muscles.

It is highly resistant to corrosion and is therefore incorporated into equipment that handles corrosive substances. Tantalum also serves as an electrode in neon tubes, alternating current rectifiers and in glass used for specialised lenses.
