Niobium is a rare, heavy transition metal belonging to the vanadium group. It is easy to work with due to its low hardness, making it suitable for processes like forging. Niobium features a high melting point, high ductility at room temperature, and readily absorbs gases. It is highly resistant to air and most acids at room temperature, though it is unstable in hot alkalis. Niobium powder can be pyrophoric, and the metal itself is known for its excellent biocompatibility.

Evek GmbH offers niobium at a competitive price in our online shop. We value close relationships with our customers and welcome your inquiries.

Niobium is primarily used as an alloying element, enhancing the strength and toughness of stainless steel. Niobium-zirconium alloys are utilized for coating nuclear fuel rods, while niobium-titanium alloys are key in manufacturing permanent magnets. Because of its biocompatibility, niobium is also used in jewelry and medical implants.

Typical applications of niobium include:

• Alloying steel and non-ferrous metals
• Jewelry production
• Coating implant surfaces
• Bimetallic coins
• Catalyst in hydrochloric acid production

Key properties of niobium:

• Low hardness and high ductility
• Extremely high melting point
• Good workability
• Resistance to most acids
• Insensitive to hot alkalis
• Excellent biocompatibility
