Tantalum Crucible Description
Tantalum (Ta) 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 the fourth-highest melting point of all metals and is able to form extremely thin and protective oxide layers for high-quality capacitors, making it an excellent material for laboratory crucibles.
Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) is a trust-worthy supplier of tantalum crucibles, who has over two decades of experience in the manufacture and sale of tantalum crucibles and other tantalum products.
