CORROSION RESISTANCE OF TANTALUM: Applications in the Chemical Industry

Abstract

Tantalum has a resistance to aqueous corrosion that may be compared closely with that of glass. The principal use of the metal is in the construction of chemical plant where its excellent corrosion‐resistant properties have assured a place for it in special applications, particularly where corrosion resistance needs to be combined with a high degree of heat transfer. This sphere of application is expanding rapidly.
