Tantalum Metals

Tantalum Metals,

Tantalum belongs to the group of refractory metals. Refractory metals have a higher melting point than platinum (1 772 °C). The energy binding the individual atoms together is particularly high. The high melting point of refractory metals is coupled with a low vapor pressure. Refractory metals are also characterized by a high density and low thermal coefficient of expansion.

 

In the periodic table, tantalum is located in the same period as tungsten. Like tungsten, tantalum has a very high density of 16.6 g/cm3. However, unlike tungsten, tantalum becomes brittle during manufacturing processes involving hydrogen atmospheres. The material is therefore produced in a high vacuum.

 

Tantalum is without doubt the most resistant of the refractory metals. It is resistant to all acids and bases and possesses a very special range of properties:
