Tantalum is generally made from sintering the powdered ore to produce a metal with an extremely high melting point of approximately 2990°C.
It has an excellent resistance to corrosion against molten metals and liquids, is biocompatible and has very high conductivity.
Applications include; heat exchanger tubes, charge carriers, capacitors, electrodes and grounding rings, jet engine parts, missile parts and vacuum furnace parts.
