It will be seen from FIG. 5 that for tantalum as well as for niobium there is a linear relationship, which means that the extracted amount of tantalum and niobium is directly proportional to the concentration of tantalum and niobium, respectively, in the feed solution.
Niobium - Machining & Forming Operations Niobium - Machining & Forming Operations INTRODUCTION Niobium is a highly ductile, soft refractory metal. The machining characteristics of niobium and its common alloys are similar to those of 316 stainless steel, and in lathe turning they behave much like soft copper. The chemical compositions, along ...
Tantalum & Niobium. Telex Metals offers a range of quality metal extraction toll processing services at a competitive price. Of particular interest to manufacturers serving the electronics industry is the conversion of tantalum and niobium capacitor scrap. We perform extraction of metals such as tantalum, niobium and silver from the scrap.
Tantalum, for example, has high ductility, superb corrosion resistance and superior biocompatibility. Global Advanced Metals, a leader for almost 70 years in the production of tantalum and niobium products, has developed tantalum feeds for a range of AM processes.
The procedure was repeated through a roll setting of 1.6 mm and a 1.67-mm screen. The combined coarse mica from the three screens comprised 41% of the feed weight and contained 4.9% of the tantalum and 7.9% of the niobium. This lost tantalum and niobium was considered part of the mica lattice rather than unliberated material.
The suitability of Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) for the selective extraction of chemically similar tantalum (Ta) and niobium (Nb) mixtures was investigated by determining the influence of the acid concentration, extractant to metal mole ratio (E:M) as well as the ageing of the feed on extraction using the extractants, bis (2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (D2EHPA) and di-iso-octylphosphinic acid (PA).
About the Tantalum-Niobium International Study Center (T.I.C.) An international, non-profit association founded in 1974 under Belgian law.

Tantalum is supplied to the world market from the following sources: 1) Tantalum ores. 2) Tin ores - as a byproduct mineral concentrate. 3) Tin smelter slags. 4) Columbium ores - as a byproduct mineral concentrate, and in solid-solution minerals with niobium. 5) Struverite - …
Howmedica developed the Titanium-12Molybdenum-6Zirconium-2Iron beta titanium alloy (also known as TMZF® beta titanium alloy) in the late 1980s. Two patents were issued for this high strength, low modulus, ductile, biocompatible, titanium base alloy [1,2]. The mechanical properties for wrought machining and forging bar in ASTM F 1813 show higher tensile and yield strengths than Ti-6Al4V ELI ...
Properties of tantalum and niobium. The tantalum carbides, niobium carbides, and tantalum niobium carbides from H.C. Starck Tungsten Powders have an especially narrow grain-size distribution and an extremely low level of impurity. H.C. Starck offers binary mixed carbide powders with ratios between (Ta,Nb)C 90/10 and (Ta,Nb)C 50/50.
Separation Of Niobium And Tantalum Separation of the tantalum from niobium is then achieved by lowering the ionic strength of the acid mixture, which causes the niobium to dissolve in the aqueous phase. It is proposed that oxyfluoride H 2 [NbOF 5] is formed under these conditions. Tantalum - …

Machining of tantalum is difficult. It has been described as "kind of like machining copper with the hardness of titanium" 1.Especially annealed tantalum may cause problems, being 'sticky', as well as having a strong tendency to seize, tear and gall 2.Unannealed tantalum material is in general more suitable for machining than annealed.
