UNSPSC 30102016: Tantalum foil

A thin foil made with Tantalum or Ta.

UNSPSC 30102016 Tantalum foil is a Commodity code covering the procurement of tantalum foil products by state and local government bodies. Tantalum foil—a thin, rolled form of the refractory metal tantalum—is used in electronics manufacturing, capacitors, and specialized industrial applications where high melting point, corrosion resistance, and electrical conductivity are required. State and local procurement under this code typically supports manufacturing operations, equipment maintenance, and technical supply chains within state-owned or municipally operated facilities that rely on advanced materials. The code serves a narrow, specialized buyer base; issuing bodies are most often state departments of transportation, state universities with engineering or materials-science programs, and county or municipal facilities management operations that maintain or upgrade electronic or industrial equipment.

The source material does not identify recent state or local contract opportunities posted under UNSPSC 30102016. Without posted solicitations, geographic concentration and representative RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB activity cannot be characterized. The code shows little recent visible activity in the state and local procurement market.
