Tantalum is a silvery, shiny metal that is soft in its pure state and belongs to group 5 of the periodic table. It is the 51st most abundant element in the Earth’s crust. Due to its tendency to form a protective oxide layer, it is highly corrosion-resistant against most acids, but is attacked by hydrofluoric acid and molten alkalis. It is hard, ductile, and easy to machine.
Tantalum is mainly used in capacitors for consumer electronics, where it competes with aluminum, niobium, and multilayer ceramics. This sector accounted for more than 60% of demand in the past; today it is less than half. Due to miniaturization and operating temperatures, tantalum capacitors are still optimal for various applications.
Tantalum is also used in sputtering targets, corrosion-resistant milling products (implants), superconductors, hard metals for cutting tools, chemicals for high-quality optics, and often as an additive in castings made from nickel-based superalloys for turbine blades in jet engines and industrial gas turbines.
