Tantalum's corrosion resistance makes it a valuable material in a large number of chemical applications. We use our "unyielding" material, for example, to produce heat exchangers for the equipment construction sector, charge carriers for furnace construction, implants for medical technology and capacitor components for the electronics industry.
Tantalum is a sensible choice whenever high corrosion resistance is required. Even though tantalum is not one of the noble metals, it is comparable to them in terms of chemical resistance. In addition, tantalum is very easy to work at well below room temperature despite its bodycentered cubic crystal structure.
