Tantalum Crucible

Product Overview
The tantalum crucible is a high-purity metal container primarily used for high-temperature melting, chemical reactions, and laboratory applications that require resistance to high temperatures and corrosion. Due to its high melting point, corrosion resistance, and excellent thermal stability, tantalum crucibles are widely used in industries such as high-temperature alloy production and electron beam melting.

Features

• High Melting Point: Tantalum has an extremely high melting point (approximately 2996°C), making it suitable for melting and processing high-temperature materials
• Corrosion Resistance: Tantalum offers exceptional resistance to corrosion, especially in high-temperature and strong acid environments
• Excellent Density and Strength: With a density of about 16.6 g/cm³, tantalum crucibles have excellent mechanical properties and stability
• Surface Treatment: The surface of the tantalum crucible is finely machined and polished to ensure smoothness, making it suitable for precision work
• Customizable: Tantalum crucibles can be customized to different sizes and specifications based on customer requirements

Applications
Tantalum crucibles are widely used in the following fields:

• Laboratory Equipment: Used for high-temperature reactions and material melting in chemical experiments, particularly in precision work where contamination must be avoided
• Metallurgical Industry: Tantalum crucibles play an important role in the melting of high-temperature alloys, precious metals, and electronic components
• Electron Beam Melting: Tantalum crucibles are commonly used as containers for melting high-temperature materials during electron beam melting processes
• Glass and Ceramics Industry: In high-temperature environments, tantalum crucibles are used for melting glass and forming ceramics
• Platinum Metal Replacement: Tantalum crucibles can serve as a substitute for platinum metals in high-temperature and corrosive environments
