Properties and Storage Conditions
Reactivity: Due to its high surface area and small particle size, tantalum nanoparticles are highly reactive and flammable.
Storage: Keep away from sunlight, heat sources, moisture, and mechanical impact; store under vacuum or inert atmosphere in a cool, dry environment.
Stability: Prevent air exposure to avoid particle agglomeration (clumping).
