Niobium is a rare transition metal from the vanadium group. It is known for its low hardness, making it easy to work with, such as for forging. Niobium has 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 but is unstable in hot alkalis. Niobium powder is pyrophoric, and the metal itself is notable for its biocompatibility.
At Evek GmbH, you can purchase niobium at a fair price. We maintain close contact with our customers and welcome your inquiries.
Niobium is primarily used as an alloying element to enhance the strength and toughness of stainless steel. Niobium-zirconium alloys are used to coat nuclear fuel rods, while niobium-titanium alloys are important for producing permanent magnets. Its biocompatibility also makes niobium suitable for jewelry and medical implants.
Typical applications of niobium include:
- Alloying steel and non-ferrous metals
- Jewelry making
- Coating implants
- Bimetallic coins
- Catalyst in hydrochloric acid production
Key properties of niobium:
- Low hardness with high ductility
- Very high melting point
