CAS 1314-61-0: Tantalum pentoxide

Tantalum(V) oxide

Tantalum oxide is a solid oxide of tantalum that is used in the manufacture of high-temperature resistant parts for use in aerospace and chemical processing industries. Tantalum oxide is also used as a material for analytical methods, such as x-ray absorption or ft-ir spectroscopy. Tantalum oxide has been shown to be an effective catalyst for plasma mass spectrometry. It has a high resistance to thermal expansion, making it especially suitable for high-temperature applications. Tantalum oxide has been shown to have a crystalline structure with nitrogen impurities, which can affect its morphology.

It is used in the production of capacitors, due to its high dielectric constant. These capacitors are used in automotive electronics, cell phones, thin film components, and electronic circuitry. In addition, Tantalum(V) oxide has been utilized in the fabrication of the glass of photographic lenses. Due to its high biocompatibility and resistivity, it has attracted many biomedical applications. It is used in tantalum capacitors, resistive switching memories, high frequency CMOS (Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductors) integrated circuits, and high-k dielectric for DRAM (Dynamic random-access memory) capacitor applications. It has been shown to improve corrosion resistance and cytocompatibility of titanium substrates. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio.
