Tantalum(V) ethoxide is mainly used for the manufacture of Tantalum(V) oxide thin-film materials. These materials are applied in semiconductor, electrochromic, and optical industries. These films have a variety of usages. For example, as optical films with refractive indices as high as 2.039. Chemical vapor deposition allows control of the thickness of the film on a nanometre scale. Mixed-metal thin-films have also been prepared from this compound. A research application of Ta(OEt)5 is for the synthesis of novel compounds with unusual chemical or geometric properties. Synthesis of this product is often mentioned in the literature (see the links below).

Ereztech manufactures and sells this product in small and bulk volumes. Glass ampules and bottles or metal ampules and bubblers are available for packaging. For additional information or details about purchasing TA4846 contact us at sales@ereztech.com
