Oxidation of Tantalum Nitride

Article Preview

Abstract:

Tantalum (Ta) can be use a suture for operation and implant material in order not to react with body fluid and stimulate a human body. In this study, the stable oxide of a tantalum, tantalum oxide layer produced by oxidation of the tantalum nitride, TaN powders by high temperature oxidation were investigated in order to determine the possibility of its a distributed aid for biomaterial composite such as an artificial root etc. The sample, TaN powder oxidized at high temperature exhibited a steady mass gain with increasing oxidation temperature. Based on the results of the XRD, tantalum oxide, Ta2O5 was detected on the samples. It is considered, the TaN showed a good oxidation film produced by high temperature oxidation.
