Područja primjene tantala

Tantal ima niz izvrsnih svojstava kao što su visoka točka taljenja, nizak tlak pare, dobre performanse hladnog rada, visoka kemijska stabilnost, jaka otpornost na koroziju tekućeg metala i velika dielektrična konstanta površinskog oksidnog filma. Stoga tantal ima važnu primjenu u visokotehnološkim-područjima kao što su elektronika, metalurgija, čelik, kemijska industrija, cementni karbid, atomska energija, supravodljiva tehnologija, automobilska elektronika, zrakoplovstvo, medicinska skrb i znanstvena istraživanja.

50 percent -70 percent of the world's tantalum is used to make tantalum capacitors in the form of capacitor-grade tantalum powder and tantalum wire. Since the surface of tantalum can form a dense and stable amorphous oxide film with high dielectric strength, it is easy to accurately and conveniently control the anodic oxidation process of capacitors. Capacitors have high capacitance, low leakage current, low equivalent series resistance, good high and low temperature characteristics, long service life, excellent comprehensive performance, and other capacitors are difficult to compare with. It is widely used in communications (switches, mobile phones, pagers, Fax machines, etc.), computers, automobiles, household and office appliances, instrumentation, aerospace, defense and military industries and other industrial and scientific and technological sectors. Therefore, tantalum is an extremely versatile functional material.
