High-Purity Tantalum Powder Applications

  • Electronics: High-purity tantalum powder is primarily used to produce high-performance tantalum capacitors. These capacitors are widely used in mobile phones, computers, televisions, and other electronic devices due to their small size, stable performance, high-temperature resistance, and long lifespan.
  • Aerospace: Tantalum powder is used in the production of high-temperature alloys and jet engine components, capable of withstanding extremely high-temperature environments, ensuring the reliability and safety of aircraft.
  • Chemical Industry: Tantalum’s corrosion resistance makes it widely used in chemical equipment, particularly in reactors, pipelines, and containers in high-temperature and corrosive environments.
  • Medical 3D Printing: High-purity tantalum powder is used to manufacture medical implants. Tantalum’s biocompatibility makes it widely used in orthopedic, dental implants, and surgical instruments.
  • Nuclear Energy: In the nuclear energy sector, tantalum is used to manufacture components in nuclear reactors due to its excellent radiation resistance, allowing it to function stably in nuclear environments for extended periods.

We carry a wide variety of tantalum and tantalum alloy products in stock, and for these, there is generally no minimum order requirement. However, for custom orders, we typically set a minimum order value of $200. The lead time for stock items is usually 1-2 weeks, while custom orders usually take 3-4 weeks, depending on the specifics of the order.

DFARS (Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement) compliance is primarily concerned with the sourcing of materials for defense-related applications in the United States. According to DFARS, certain materials used in defense must be sourced from the United States or qualifying countries.

If you have specific tantalum materials that are subject to DFARS, please let us know in advance and we will confirm.

At Shanghai Yuepeng Tech, we take this responsibility seriously. We adhere to all applicable laws and regulations, including Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Act. Our company operates with a strict code of ethics and is committed to only partnering with suppliers who share our dedication to responsible sourcing. We support the initiatives and programs aimed at promoting “conflict-free” supply chains and work diligently to ensure that our products meet these standards.

Its applications are highly specialized: 

  • Electronics: Manufacturing tantalum electrolytic capacitors (largest application). 
  • Advanced Manufacturing: Producing sputtering targets3D printing (Additive Manufacturing) metal parts.
  • Powder Metallurgy (PM): Making corrosion-resistant, high-strength, near-net-shape parts.
  • Research

Requirements are extremely stringent: 

  • Very high purity, especially very low oxygen (<100ppm) and nitrogen content to prevent printing cracks.
  • Good sphericity for flowability.
  • Precise particle size distribution (often 15-53μm or 45-106μm) for even spreading and high density.
  • Low satellite and hollow particle content.

Must be handled in a clean, dry environment. Stored in sealed containers filled with high-purity inert gas (e.g., argon). Use dedicated tools during operation to avoid contact with other batches or materials. Strictly prevent moisture, oxidation, and dust to maintain its high-purity properties.
