Tantalum targets

Buss & Buss offers tantalum recycling from scrap to tantalum targets

You need targets made of tantalum for your industrial production and are looking for a professional industrial partner? Then you have come to the right place, and we welcome you to Buss & Buss Spezialmetalle from Northern Germany.

For more than 25 years, we have been operating as a recycling company, extracting valuable special and specialty metals such as niobium, rhenium, hafnium, zirconium, gallium and tantalum from scrap metal and metal-bearing scrap in order to produce recyclable raw materials in pure form . For this purpose, we developed special thermal, mechanical and chemical processes to offer you tantalum in 99.9% pure form.

Tantalum plates, tantalum granules and targets made of tantalum by Buss & Buss Spezialmetalle

In the further processing of the extracted tantalum, we produce tantalum in various forms, consistencies and grain sizes for our customers in industries such as aerospace, microelectronics and medical technology. In addition to tantalum granules in different sizes, we also produce tantalum plates and targets from tantalum.

But what are tantalum targets actually? In the context of metals and industry, the word “targets” seems very scientific, but these are simply round tantalum plates that resemble targets and are also known as tantalum sputtering targets. The tantalum targets are available from us in various diameters, thicknesses or lengths. They find their application as diffusion barrier materials, gate electrodes in MOSFET devices , memory devices or as barrier materials in copper cables due to their excellent properties such as corrosion and temperature resistance and biocompatibility.

Tantalum as recycling products

In the production of tantalum targets, Buss & Buss Spezialmetalle is fully committed to recycling special metals that have already been mined. The worldwide occurrence of tantalum and other special metals is decreasing due to the rapid increase in technology by computer systems and the use of mobile phones. The basis for microelectronics is rare earths and metals such as tantalum . By recycling tantalum, we are able to conserve the dwindling deposits and thus protect the regions around the mining areas, while at the same time reducing CO2 emissions many times over. In addition, through tantalum recycling, we offer our customers worldwide economic independence from the tantalum trade.

Please feel free to contact us by phone or via the contact form if you would like to receive more information about our tantalum targets and other special metals. We look forward to your message.
