Niobium is a rare heavy transition metal in the vanadium group. With its low hardness, niobium is easy to process, such as by forging. It features 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, though it is unstable in hot alkalis. As a powder, niobium is pyrophoric. This metal is also known for its outstanding biocompatibility.

Niobium is primarily used as an alloying element, enhancing the strength and toughness of stainless steels. Alloys of niobium and zirconium are used for nuclear fuel rod coatings, while niobium-titanium alloys are important for manufacturing permanent magnets. Thanks to its biocompatibility, niobium is also used in jewelry and medical implants.
Main industrial applications for niobium include:
- Alloying agent in steel and non-ferrous metals
- Jewelry manufacturing
- Coating implant surfaces
- Bimetallic coins
- Catalyst in hydrochloric acid production
Key properties of niobium:
- Low hardness and high ductility
- Extremely high melting point
- Good workability
- Resistance to most acids
- Not affected by hot alkalis
