Niobium is a rare heavy transition metal from the vanadium group. Thanks to its low hardness, it is easy to work with, such as for forging. It features a very high melting point, high ductility at room temperature, and a strong ability to absorb gases. Niobium is highly resistant to air and most acids at room temperature but is unstable in hot alkalis. Niobium powder is pyrophoric. The metal is also known for excellent biocompatibility.
At Evek GmbH, you will find niobium at a fair price. We maintain close communication with our customers and look forward to your inquiries.
Most commonly, niobium is used as an alloying element to enhance the strength and toughness of stainless steels. Niobium-zirconium alloys are utilized to coat nuclear fuel rods, while niobium-titanium alloys are important for making permanent magnets. Due to its biocompatibility, niobium is also used in jewelry and implants.
Key applications for niobium include:
- Alloying element for steel and non-ferrous alloys
- Jewelry manufacturing
- Coating implant surfaces
- Bimetallic coin production
- Catalyst in hydrochloric acid production
Notable properties of niobium:
- Low hardness with high ductility
- Extremely high melting point
