Please refer to our FAQ for more information.Niobium is a rare heavy metal from the transition metals group, closely related to vanadium. Thanks to its low hardness, it is easy to work with, such as during forging. It boasts a very high melting point, excellent ductility at room temperature, and readily absorbs gases. Niobium is highly resistant to air and most acids at room temperature, but is unstable in hot alkalis. Its powder form is pyrophoric, and the metal is known for its outstanding biocompatibility.You’ll find fair prices for niobium in the Evek GmbH online shop. We value close contact with our customers and welcome your inquiries.Niobium is mainly used as an alloying element, enhancing the strength and toughness of stainless steel alloys. Niobium-zirconium alloys are utilized for coating nuclear fuel rods, while niobium-titanium alloys are vital in producing permanent magnets. Thanks to its biocompatibility, niobium is also popular in jewelry making and medical implants.Typical applications for niobium include: - Alloying steel and non-ferrous metals - Jewelry manufacturing - Coating implant surfaces - Bimetallic coins - Acting as a catalyst in hydrochloric acid productionKey properties of niobium: - Low hardness and high ductility - Extremely high melting point - Good machinability - Resistance to most acids - Stability against hot alkalis - Excellent biocompatibilityPurchase niobium from Evek GmbH—a trusted global supplier offering worldwide shipping, top-quality service, and expert advice.
