Ferro Tantalum Powder Description
Ferro Tantalum (FeTa) Powder is a finely powdered alloy composed of iron (Fe) and tantalum (Ta). It is produced through the reduction of tantalum oxide with iron, resulting in a material with enhanced properties compared to pure Ta or Fe. Ferro Tantalum (FeTa) Powder exhibits a combination of Fe and Ta characteristics, including a high melting point, excellent corrosion resistance, good ductility, and high electrical conductivity. This makes it suitable for a wide range of applications in various industries.
