Tantalum Carbide Description
Tantalum carbide is a brown, hard refractory ceramic material. TaC powder is hard, brittle, and has a high thermal and electrical conductivity. It is processed using sintering and improves oxidation resistance, hot-hardness, and temperature strength in steel processing. Our tantalum carbide powder is supplied in minimal grain sizes and is frequently used in deposition and evaporation processes and in applications where high surface areas are desired.
Tantalum carbides (TaC) is used to increase the performance of hard metal cutting tools that are very important due to their use in growth markets such as the automobile and aerospace industries. Tantalum niobium carbides make great contributions toward improvements in oxidation resistance, hot-hardness and high temperature strength as well as resistance to crater wear in steel processing. Thanks to their thermal conductivity, they also increase resistance to thermal cracking, which can occur due to thermal shock effects during milling, for example.
SSC specializes in producing high purity Tantalum Carbide Powder with the smallest possible average grain sizes for use in preparation of pressed and bonded sputtering targets and in Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) and Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) processes including Thermal and Electron Beam (E-Beam) Evaporation, Low Temperature Organic Evaporation, Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD), Metallic-Organic and Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD). Powders are also useful in any application where high surface areas are desired such as water treatment and in fuel cell and solar applications. Nanoparticles also produce very high surface areas. Our standard powder particle sizes average in the range of - 325 mesh, - 100 mesh, 10-50 microns and submicron (< 1 micron). We can also provide many materials in the nanoscale range.
