product description
Tantalum(V) chloride, also known as tantalum pentachloride, is an inorganic compound with the formula TaCl5. It takes the form of a white powder and is commonly used as a starting material in tantalum chemistry. It readily hydrolyzes to form tantalum(V) oxychloride (TaOCl3) and eventually tantalum pentoxide (Ta2O5); this requires that it be synthesised and manipulated under anhydrous conditions, using air-free techniques.
Tantalum pentachloride is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula TaCl5. It is a white crystalline powder that is soluble in anhydrous alcohol, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, carbon disulfide, thiophenol, and potassium hydroxide. It is mainly used as a chlorinating agent for organic compounds, a chemical intermediate, and in the preparation of tantalum.
