Typical application: Ta Oxide is used as the raw materials of the Tantalum metal (Ta Powder, Ta Bar, Ta Carbide). Tantalum pentoxide has found a variety of uses in electronics, particularly in tantalum capacitors, due to its high band gap and dielectric constant. These electronics are used in the automotive electronics, cell phones, and pagers, electronic circuitry, thin-film components, and high-speed tools. Tantalum oxide may have applications as the charge trapping layer for Non-volatile memories. Ta2O5 has been utilized in the fabrication of the glass of photographic lenses, due to its high refractive index.
