CA0203 Micro Tantalum Carbide 600μm (TaC) Powder (CAS No. 12070-06-3)

Micro Tantalum Carbide Powder 600μm Description

Tantalum Carbide is a hard refractory ceramic material. TaC powder is hard, brittle, and has a high thermal and electrical conductivity. It is processed using sintering and improves oxidation resistance, hot hardness, and temperature strength in steel processing. Our tantalum carbide powder is supplied in minimal grain sizes and is frequently used in deposition and evaporation processes and in applications where high surface areas are desired.

Tantalum Carbide (TaC) is used to increase the performance of hard metal cutting tools that are very important due to their use in growth markets such as the automobile and aerospace industries. Tantalum niobium carbides make great contributions toward improvements in oxidation resistance, hot-hardness and high-temperature strength as well as resistance to crater wear in steel processing. Thanks to their thermal conductivity, they also increase resistance to thermal cracking, which can occur due to thermal shock effects during milling, for example.
