  • Patent number: 9764388
    Abstract: A method for preparing a tantalum power of capacitor grade, comprising: solid tantalum nitride is added when potassium fluotantalate is reduced by sodium. The method increases the nitrogen content in the tantalum powder, and at the same time improves the electrical performance of the tantalum powder. The specific capacitance is increased, and the leakage current and loss is improved. The qualification rate of the anode and the capacitor product is also improved. The method is characterized in that the nitrogen in the tantalum nitride diffuses between the particles of the tantalum powder, with substantially no loss, and thus the nitrogen content is accurate and controllable.
