Niobium is a rare transition metal from the vanadium group. It is easy to work with due to its low hardness and is suitable for forging. Niobium features a 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 unstable in hot alkalis. In powder form, niobium is pyrophoric. It is also well-tolerated by the body, making it suitable for medical applications.
At Evek GmbH, niobium is offered at a fair price. We value close contact with our customers and welcome your inquiries.
Niobium is primarily used as an alloying element to improve the strength and toughness of stainless steels. Alloys of niobium and zirconium are utilized in the coating of nuclear fuel rods, while niobium-titanium alloys are essential for making permanent magnets. Due to its biocompatibility, niobium is also used in jewelry and medical implants.
Main applications for niobium include:
- Alloying agent for steel and non-ferrous metals
- Jewelry manufacturing
- Coating for medical implants
- Production of bimetallic coins
- Catalyst in hydrochloric acid production
Key properties of niobium:
- Low hardness and high ductility
- Very high melting point
- Good machinability
- Resistant to most acids
- Stable against hot alkalis
- Excellent biocompatibility
