What is Niobium Used for?
Niobium Products Areas of Application Properties and Main Functions
Ferro Niobium Alloy steels, stainless steels, oil and gas pipelines, bicycle and truck bodies, construction materials, tool steel, ships, railroad tracks. Increase the strength and toughness of steel, reduce the weight of steel.
Niobium Oxide Lithium niobate is used in acoustic filters, camera lenses, computer screens, ceramic capacitors. High refractive index, high dielectric constant, increased light transmission.
Niobium Carbide Cutting tools. Easily molded at high temperatures to avoid texturing.
Niobium powder Niobium capacitors in circuit boards. High dielectric constant, stabilizes oxide media.
Niobium material: niobium plates, niobium wires, niobium rods and niobium tubes Sputtering targets, cathodic protection systems, chemical reaction equipment. Corrosion resistance, the formation of oxide nitride film, oxidation resistance, high creep resistance, reduce high temperature corrosion.
Niobium-titanium alloy, tin alloy Superconducting magnetic coils, magnetic levitation transportation systems, particle physics experiments. Resistance alloy wire drop rate is almost zero or below the liquid hydrogen temperature (-268.8°c).
Niobium-zirconium alloys Sodium vapor lamps Chemical reaction equipment Corrosion resistance, resistance to embrittlement.
Vacuum ferro-niobium and nickel-niobium alloys Turbine blade jet engines, land-based turbines High temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, improved creep resistance, reduced high temperature corrosion.
