Niobium is a rare, heavy transition metal found in the vanadium group. Thanks to its low hardness, it is easy to work with, such as for forging. Niobium features a very high melting point, excellent ductility at room temperature, and readily absorbs gases. It is highly resistant to air and most acids at room temperature, although it is unstable in hot alkalis. Niobium powder is pyrophoric, and niobium metal offers excellent biocompatibility.

At the Evek GmbH online shop, niobium is available at a competitive price. We maintain close relationships with our customers and look forward to your inquiries.

Niobium is primarily used as an alloying element to enhance the strength and toughness of stainless steel alloys. It is also found in niobium-zirconium alloys for nuclear fuel rod cladding, niobium-titanium alloys for permanent magnets, and in jewelry and medical implants because of its biocompatibility.

Key industrial applications for niobium include:

• Alloying additive for steel and non-ferrous metals
• Jewelry making
• Coating for medical implants
• Bimetallic coin production
• Catalyst in hydrochloric acid manufacturing

Main characteristics of niobium:

• Low hardness and high ductility
• Very high melting point
• Excellent machinability
• Resistant to most acids
• Stable against hot alkalis
• Outstanding biocompatibility
