Niobium is a rare, heavy transition metal from the vanadium group. Thanks to its low hardness, it is easy to process, such as by forging. Niobium boasts a very high melting point, remains highly ductile at room temperature, and readily absorbs gases. It is extremely resistant to air exposure and most acids at room temperature, but is unstable in hot alkalis. Niobium powder is pyrophoric, while solid niobium is known for its excellent biocompatibility.
At Evek GmbH, you’ll find niobium at a competitive price. We value communication with our customers and welcome your inquiries.
The main application for niobium is as an alloying element. It enhances the strength and toughness of stainless steels. Niobium-zirconium alloys are used to coat nuclear fuel rods, while niobium-titanium alloys are vital for manufacturing permanent magnets. Due to its biocompatibility, niobium is also used in jewelry and medical implants.
Key uses of niobium include:
- Alloying additive for steel and non-ferrous metals
- Jewelry production
- Coating of medical implants
- Bimetallic coin manufacturing
- As a catalyst in hydrochloric acid production
Niobium offers several notable properties:
- Low hardness with high ductility
- Very high melting point
- Good workability
- Resistant to most acids
- Unreactive in hot alkalis
- Excellent biocompatibility
