Tantaline® treatment is a diffusion bonded protective desired deposit. CVD technology has proven itself to layer of tantalum formed by chemical vapor deposition be robust, economical, and scalable over many years (CVD) on the surface of common materials. The of service in semiconductor and other industries. resulting surface has the same properties of pure tantalum because it is tantalum. Tantalum is the most corrosion resistant metal commercially available due Tantaline CVD to its very dense surface oxide layer. Compatibility with Our proprietary process creates a dense tantalum concentrated high temperature acidic environments surface with all of the beneficial properties of pure has been well established in industrial applications. tantalum metal. The Tantaline® process is conducted Tantaline® treatment enables the highest level of in a sealed reaction chamber under highly controlled corrosion resistance for components used in a wide conditions. This CVD process is geometry independent range of aggressive atmospheres at a competitive which enables both internal and external surfaces of price. This treatment can be applied to stock parts as a complex shapes to be treated at the same time. direct substitute for specialty metals. The list includes Parts typically treated include valves, fittings, solid tantalum, tantalum cladding, titanium, zirconium autoclaves, process chambers, flow reactors, and nickel alloys like Hastelloy®*, Inconel® ** and Alloy fasteners, mixers, flowmeters, and medical devices. 20. Treatment of stock parts fabricated from common Specialty items can be evaluated for treatment upon base metals can significantly reduce the overall lead request. Base metal is typically standard grades of time for otherwise difficult to obtain special order stainless steel, but the treatment process has been items. successfully applied to many substrate materials. Years of service have proven the reliability of Chemical Vapor Deposition Tantaline® treatment across a broad range of industries including chemical processing, oil & gas, mining, pharmaceutical, and medical. The list of Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) is the precisely successful applications continues to grow along with controlled decomposition of gases used to deposit a our technical capabilities and manufacturing capacity. high quality, high performance material onto a surface. CVD requires multidisciplinary engineering including chamber design, temperature control, gas and vapor flow, pressure control, and automation to achieve the
This is a 316 stainless steel washer that has been treated in the Tantaline® process. As a result, this washer has a pure tantalum metal surface and all of the corrosion resistant properties of pure tantalum metal. Call for your test coupon today to test it in your corrosive medium.
