Abstract:
The invention relates to the production of valve metal powders, in particular, tantalum powders by reduction of a corresponding valve metal compound, for example, K2TaF7, with an alkali metal in the presence of a diluent salt, whereby the reduction is carried out in the presence of a particle diminution agent, preferably, Na2SO4, which is added to the reaction mixture continuously or in aliquots.
