Niobium


Main applications of niobium
Vacuum tubes and reactors: Due to its superconducting properties, niobium is used in the manufacture of electron tubes and superconducting magnets in particle accelerators.
Aerospace industry: Niobium alloys are used in space vehicles and jet engines for their high-temperature properties.
Medical devices: Niobium and its alloys have good biocompatibility and are suitable for medical implants.
Chemical Equipment: Because of its acid resistance, niobium is used in chemical reactors and corrosion-resistant equipment.
Nuclear engineering: Niobium is used as a nuclear reactor material to control nuclear fission reactions.
High Temperature Processes: Niobium's high temperature strength makes it a thermally strong material used in high temperature industrial processes.
