Niobium sheet Nb element 41 99.99% sheets Niobium strips cut to size selectable 100 - 750mm (width : 100mm, length : 100mm, Thickness / Strength : 2mm)

Length tolerance: +/-2mmThis stainless steel bar is made from various alloys, each with unique compositions and properties depending on the grade. Niobium, a rare transition metal in the vanadium group, is known for its low hardness, high ductility at room temperature, and very high melting point. It is easy to work with, highly resistant to most acids, and stable in air, making it suitable for a range of industrial uses. However, it is unstable in hot alkalis and niobium powder can be pyrophoric. Niobium is also recognized for its excellent biocompatibility.Niobium is commonly used as an alloying element to enhance the strength and toughness of stainless steel. It is also found in alloys with zirconium for coating nuclear fuel rods, in niobium-titanium alloys for making permanent magnets, and in the production of jewelry and medical implants.Key properties of niobium include: - Low hardness with high ductility - Very high melting temperature - Good workability - High resistance to most acids - Stability in air - Good biocompatibilityApplications for niobium include: - Alloying additive for steel and non-ferrous alloys - Jewelry manufacturing - Coating for medical implants - Bimetallic coins - Catalyst in hydrochloric acid productionNiobium is available at fair prices from Evek GmbH, a global supplier committed to excellent service and expert advice.
