Niobium is a rare heavy transition metal within the vanadium group. Thanks to its low hardness, it is easy to process, such as by forging. Niobium features a very high melting point, excellent ductility at room temperature, and readily absorbs gases. It is highly resistant to air and is not affected by most acids at room temperature, although it can be unstable in hot alkalis. Niobium powder is pyrophoric, and the metal itself is well-known for its good biocompatibility.
In our Evek GmbH online shop, niobium is available at a fair price. We value close communication with our customers and welcome your inquiries.
Niobium is primarily used as an alloying element, enhancing the strength and toughness of stainless steel. Alloys with niobium and zirconium are utilized for coating nuclear fuel rods, while niobium-titanium alloys are essential in the creation of permanent magnets. Thanks to its biocompatibility, niobium is also popular in jewelry making and for use in medical implants.
Main applications of niobium include:
- Alloying agent for steel and non-ferrous metals
- Jewelry production
- Coating surfaces of implants
- Used in bimetallic coins
- As a catalyst in hydrochloric acid manufacturing
Key properties of niobium:
- Low hardness and high ductility
- Extremely high melting point
- Good workability
- Resistance to most acids
- Stable in hot alkalis
