Tantalum is a shiny, silvery metal that is soft in its pure state and belongs to group 5 of the periodic table. It is the 51st most common element in the earth's crust. Due to its tendency to form a protective oxide layer, it is very resistant to corrosion by 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 aluminium, niobium and multilayer ceramics. This sector used to account for over 60 % of demand, but now accounts for less than half. Due to miniaturisation and operating temperatures, capacitors made of tantalum are still ideal for various applications.

Tantalum is also used in sputtering targets, corrosion-resistant mill products (implants), superconductors, hard metals for cutting tools, chemicals for high-quality optics and often as an additive in nickel-based superalloy castings for turbine blades in jet engines and industrial gas turbines.
