Please refer to our FAQ for details.Niobium is a rare, heavy transition metal from the vanadium group. Thanks to its low hardness, it is easy to process, such as forging. Niobium features a high melting point, excellent ductility at room temperature, and can readily absorb gases. It is highly resistant to corrosion in air and is not affected by most acids at room temperature, though it is unstable in hot alkalis. Niobium powder is pyrophoric, and the metal itself is known for its good biocompatibility.You can find competitive prices for niobium in the Evek GmbH online shop. We value close communication with our customers and are happy to assist with any inquiries.Niobium is mainly used as an alloying element, enhancing the strength and toughness of stainless steel. Niobium-zirconium alloys are used for coating nuclear fuel rods, while niobium-titanium alloys are essential in manufacturing permanent magnets. Due to its biocompatibility, niobium is also popular in jewelry and medical implants.Common applications for niobium include: - Alloying additive in steel and non-ferrous alloys - Jewelry manufacturing - Surface coating for implants - Bimetallic coin production - Catalyst in hydrochloric acid manufacturingKey properties of niobium: - Low hardness with high ductility - Very high melting point - Good machinability - High resistance to most acids - Stability against hot alkalis - Excellent biocompatibilityPurchase niobium from Evek GmbH, your trusted supplier.
