Spherical TaNb Alloy (Ta40Nb) Powder Description
Spherical TaNb Alloy (Ta40Nb) Powder has long been known to be the most corrosive resistant metal for use in hot acidic environments like hydrochloric, sulfuric, nitric, formic, and acetic acid. Its corrosion-resistant properties provide multiple benefits for end users including longer equipment life, lower operating downtime, and increased operating temperatures.
About 3D Printing – From Wikipedia
3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing (AM), refers to various processes used to synthesize a three-dimensional object. In 3D printing, successive layers of material are created under computer control. These objects can be of almost any shape or geometry, and are produced from a 3D model or another electronic data source. A 3D printer is a type of industrial robot.
