Ta/steel Tantalum/ Steel clad plate

Overview of Ta/steel Tantalum/Steel Clad Plate

Tantalum/steel clad plate is a composite material composed of tantalum and steel. Tantalum is a rare refractory metal material with a high melting point, low vapor pressure and small expansion coefficient, and has good corrosion resistance. Steel is a material with high strength, high wear resistance, and high heat resistance, which can ensure the efficient processing and service life of the composite plate. The structure of the composite plate usually combines the tantalum plate and the steel plate to form a “strong combination” mode.

Production Method of Tantalum/steel clad plate

To produce a titled clad steel with substantial joint strength at a good yield, Cr, Mo, V, Ni, and Cu are interposed as single or plural layers between a titanium material and a steel material and started rolling in a specific temperature range after seal welding.
CONSTITUTION: Two sheets of laminates, each formed by interposing an insert material 3 consisting of single or plural layers of Cr, Mo, V, Ni, and Cu between a steel plate 1 and a Ti or Ti alloy plate 2 are made into a set by interposing a release material 4. The steel plates 1, 1, and the spacer 5 are subjected to seal welding 6 to avoid the supply of oxygen to the joint surfaces. The laminates are then rolled at a rolling start temp. Of =500 deg.C and =1,000 deg.C to form a clad steel. Both ends are cut by cutting line 8 after hot rolling. Cut parts 9 are separated at the release material 4 part, by which two sheets of titanium (alloy) clad steels are obtd.

Storage Condition of Tantalum/steel clad plate

Tantalum/steel-clad plates should be stored in a dry, clean, and well-ventilated environment to prevent moisture absorption and corrosion. Ideal storage temperature is between 10°C to 30°C (50°F to 86°F). Avoid exposure to high humidity, direct sunlight, or corrosive substances such as acids, alkalis, or salt spray. Use protective packaging (e.g., VCI film or desiccants) to shield the plates from oxidation and contamination. Store them horizontally on flat racks or pallets to avoid deformation and ensure proper airflow. Regularly inspect for signs of corrosion, especially at the edges or bonding interface. Proper storage ensures the material retains its structural integrity and performance.
