Niobium is a rare transition metal from the vanadium group, known for its easy workability due to low hardness, high melting point, and excellent ductility at room temperature. It readily absorbs gases and is highly resistant to air and most acids at room temperature, but is unstable in hot alkalis. Niobium powder is pyrophoric, and the metal itself is noted for its biocompatibility.

Primarily, niobium is used as an alloying element to improve the strength and toughness of stainless steel. Niobium-zirconium alloys are common in nuclear fuel rod coatings, while niobium-titanium alloys are essential for manufacturing permanent magnets. Additionally, niobium is used in jewelry and medical implants thanks to its compatibility with biological tissues.
Main applications of niobium include:
- Alloying steel and non-ferrous metals
- Jewelry production
- Coating implant surfaces
- Bimetal coin manufacture
- As a catalyst in hydrochloric acid production
Key properties of niobium are:
- Low hardness and high ductility
- Very high melting temperature
- Excellent machinability
- Resistance to most acids
- Stability in hot alkalis
- Outstanding biocompatibility
