Tantaline® has developed a surface treatment that is different than tantalum coatings that are sprayed or dipped. A Tantaline Surface is a tantalum surface alloy. This surface alloy was designed with high performance in mind for aggressive applications that require corrosive protection or inertness. Requirements of our surface treatment include:
The chart below shows the formation of the alloy zone in the Tantaline process. This alloy zone is the key for Tantaline's rugged tantalum surface that will not chip or spall.
