Niobium is a rare transition metal from the vanadium group, known for its low hardness and excellent workability, such as forging. It features a very high melting point, high ductility at room temperature, and readily absorbs gases. Niobium is highly resistant to air and most acids at room temperature, while it is unstable in hot alkaline environments. In powder form, it exhibits pyrophoric properties. Niobium is also recognized for its good biocompatibility.

Primarily, niobium is used as an alloying element to enhance the strength and toughness of stainless steels. Alloys of niobium and zirconium are applied in coatings for nuclear fuel rods, while niobium-titanium alloys are vital in manufacturing permanent magnets. Thanks to its biocompatibility, niobium is also popular in jewelry and medical implants.

Niobium is widely utilized across various industries, including:

• as an alloying agent for steel and non-ferrous metals;
• in jewelry production;
• for coating implant surfaces;
• in bimetallic coins;
• as a catalyst in hydrochloric acid manufacturing.

Key characteristics of niobium include:

• low hardness and high ductility;
• exceptionally high melting point;
• good machinability;
• resistance to most acids;
• stability against hot alkalis;
• excellent biocompatibility.
