Tantalum ingot is a lumpy product made of tantalum metal.
Basic Information:
Appearance: it usually shows a silvery grey metallic luster with a relatively smooth surface.Density: 16.6 g / cm3.
Melting point: 2996°C.
Conductivity: good electrical conductivity
Surface properties: the surface of the tantalum ingot is easy to form a layer of dense and stable oxide film, this layer of oxide film has a one-way conductive valve metal properties, can further protect the tantalum ingot internal from oxidation and corrosion.
Production process.
Preparation of raw materials: high-purity tantalum ore or tantalum waste is selected as raw materials, and after beneficiation, purification and other processes to remove the impurities, to obtain high-purity tantalum metal raw materials.
Smelting: The purified tantalum metal raw material is put into a high-temperature furnace for smelting, which usually adopts the methods of electron beam smelting, vacuum arc smelting and so on.
Ingot casting: The melted tantalum metal liquid is poured into moulds for ingot casting, so that it cools and solidifies into tantalum ingots.
Areas of application.
Electronic industry: Tantalum ingot is one of the important materials for manufacturing electronic components, such as capacitors, resistors, inductors and so on.
Aerospace: Due to its high temperature and corrosion resistance as well as good mechanical properties, tantalum ingot can be used to manufacture parts in the aerospace field, such as the thermal protection layer of aircraft engines, nozzles of rocket engines, etc.
Chemical industry: it can be used to manufacture corrosion-resistant parts in chemical equipment, such as reactors, pipelines, valves and so on. In strong corrosive chemical media, tantalum ingots can effectively prevent corrosion and damage to the equipment.
VI HALBLEITERMATERIAL GmbH (VIMATERIAL) employs a stringent quality assurance system to ensure the reliability of our product quality. Strict quality control is implemented throughout the entire production chain, and for defective products, we strictly enforce the principle of rework and redo. Each batch is released only after passing detailed specification tests.
Every batch of our materials is independently tested, and, if necessary, we send samples to certified companies for testing. We provide these documents and analysis certificates with the shipment to certify that our products meet the required standards.
