Tantalum Ingot Description
Tantalum Ingot (Ta Ingot) of high quality is available at Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM). Tantalum Ingot is made of Tantalum (Ta), which is a dark blue-gray metal that is very heavy, ductile, and hard and has high corrosion resistance. Tantalum is especially resistant to chemicals at temperatures below 150 °C and can only be dissolved with hydrofluoric acid. It has a high melting point and is able to form extremely thin and protective oxide layers.
As a leading tantalum products supplier across the world, Stanford Advanced Materials offers customers high-quality Tantalum Ingots at a very competitive price.
