Abstract

See full text

A method for producing agglomerated tantalum particles, comprising: a step for grinding secondary tantalum particles, which are obtained by reducing a tantalum salt, and adding water thereto to give a water-containing mass; a step for drying said water-containing mass to give a dry mass; a step for sieving said dry mass to give spherical particles; and a step for heating said spherical particles. A mixed tantalum powder comprising a mixture of agglomerated tantalum particles (X) with agglomerated tantalum particles (Y), wherein said agglomerated tantalum particles (X) show a cumulative percentage of particles with particle size of 3 μm or less of 5 mass % or less after 25 W ultrasonic radiation for 10 min, while said agglomerated tantalum particles (Y) show a cumulative percentage of particles with particle size of 3 μm or less of 10 mass % or more after 25 W ultrasonic radiation for 10 min.
