Tantalum is an element of the periodic table with the symbol Ta and atomic number 73. Tantalum finds use as a modern metal because of its properties of capacitance, hardness, erosion resistance, and high heat resistance. Tantalum is available as wire, sputtering target, and pole, & mixes as nanopowders.

Tantalum is typically found in the compound shape and is not available in nature as a free component. The most widely recognized tantalum mineral is columbite or tantalite. A tantalum electrolytic capacitor, an individual from the group of electrolytic capacitors, is a polarized capacitor whose anode terminal (+) is made of tantalum on which a thin protecting oxide layer is formed and this acts as the dielectric of the capacitor. A strong or liquid electrolyte that covers the surface of the oxide layer fills in as the second cathode terminal () of the capacitor. Because of its thin and moderately high permittivity dielectric layer, the tantalum capacitor distinguishes itself from other customary and electrolytic capacitors in having high capacitance per volume (high volumetric efficiency) and lower weight.

The major drivers of this market are the growing importance and demand for electronic gadgets such as smartphones & tablets and equipment. With an increase in electronic gadgets, the use of capacitors is expected to increase, thereby promoting the growth of the market. Also, the material finds its use, extensively, in aviation and land based gas turbine, and the demand from this sector is expected to rise at a brisk pace in the near future owing to high growth in aviation and aerospace industries. However, it is important to note that a majority of the worlds tantalum ores are located in the African continent and a ban on mining in the continent will lead to a demand-supply gap, which in return will raise the price of the capacitors, thereby increasing the overall cost for the product. The opportunity for the market lies in the fact that the mining methods have been improved over time and this will ensure uninterrupted supply for the market.

The market for tantalum capacitors is segmented into product type, application, and geography. The product type is segmented into tantalum foil electrolytic capacitor, tantalum capacitors with porous anode & liquid electrolyte, tantalum capacitors with porous anode, and solid electrolyte. The application is further divided into sample & hold circuits, power supply filtering, military applications, medical electronics, audio amplifiers, wireless handset, and telecommunications infrastructure. The region wise divisions are North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
