FAQs

Tantalum Foil & Tantalum Strip FAQs:

1 What are the properties of Tantalum foil? Tantalum foil has excellent corrosion resistance, especially to strong acids like sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid. It also boasts a high melting point of 3,017°C, making it ideal for high-temperature applications. Tantalum is non-reactive, durable, and maintains its form under extreme conditions.

2 How thick is Tantalum foil? Tantalum foil can come in a wide range of thicknesses, typically ranging from 0.001 inches to 0.125 inches (0.025 mm to 3.175 mm). Custom thicknesses can be manufactured to meet specific industry requirements.

3 How is Tantalum foil produced? Tantalum foil is typically produced by rolling or drawing the metal into thin sheets. The process often starts with a slab or ingot of tantalum metal, which is heated and then passed through rollers or drawing dies to achieve the desired thickness.
