Tantalum Equipment for the Chemical Industry
Thanks to their exceptional corrosion resistance, our tantalum equipment is indispensable in the chemical industry. They are used in demanding processes such as sulfuric acid concentration (SAC) and HCl stripping. Tantalum is highly resistant to strong acids, including sulfuric, nitric, and hydrochloric acid, ensuring the safe and efficient processing of chemicals such as mononitrobenzene (MNB), aniline, and highly reactive isocyanates like MDI and TDI, which are key components in polyurethane production.
Our equipment helps ensure smooth processes with minimal downtime. End markets include the paint, plastics, and pharmaceutical industries, as well as the production of polyurethane foams for construction and furniture. Another important application is epoxy resin manufacturing, where epichlorohydrin serves as a key raw material. One method for its production is the chlorohydrin process, which generates hydrochloric acid within the reaction columns. We provide tantalum linings for these columns, including vacuum-resistant designs – depending on your process requirements. Additionally, we supply tantalum-clad or solid tantalum column internals, manufactured to meet your technical specifications .
