The use of niobium foil is very versatile, which is determined by the characteristics of the foils.

      In 1801, British C. Hachette separated a new element of oxide from the columbite and named the element columbium. It is also a good superconductor capable of absorbing gas and acting as a degasifier.

    BaoJi Yuan Da Metal Materials Co., Ltd is one of the leading China niobium plate manufacturers and suppliers, and as a professional company we have productive factory, welcome to wholesale niobium plate products from us.

     The addition of niobium to the steel as a microalloying element does not change the structure of iron, but rather combines with the carbon #nitrogen#sulfur in the steel, changing the microstructure of the steel. Lithium niobate is a kind of electric iron material, which has a wide range of applications in the manufacture of portable telephones and optical modulators and surface acoustic wave devices.Niobium can replace tantalum capacitors in tantalum capacitors to reduce costs, but tantalum capacitors are still better.

    Niobium exhibits superconductor properties at low temperature.The critical temperature at standard atmospheric pressure is 9.2K, which is the highest in all the superconductors.Its magnetic penetration depth is also the highest among all elements. Niobium is one of the three kinds of single class II superconductors and the other two are vanadium and technetium.The purity of niobium metal will greatly affect its superconductivity.

Niobium is very low in thermal neutron capture cross sections, so it is of considerable use in nuclear industry.

      The steel industry needs a lot of defects every year. The addition of niobium to steel products can greatly increase the strength and toughness of the product and improve the welding performance.

       Steel products can be mainly divided into "flat material" and "long strips." In flat products, niobium is widely used in high-strength steel plates, hot-rolled strip steels, cold-rolled strip steels, etc.; in long strip products, building profiles, railway rails, concrete reinforcement bars, and engineering rods and wires are added. After that, the product performance has been greatly improved.

       The use of crucibles in cast iron is a relatively new technology. The products are mainly used in automobile cylinder heads, piston rings and brake pads. In casting applications, the main role of niobium is to form hard carbide (beneficial to wear resistance) and change the morphology and size of the graphite sheet.

          As a micro-alloying additive element, niobium can increase the strength and toughness of steel castings at the same time. The developed uses include: ingot molds, slag pots, support rollers of rolling mills, nodes of production platforms, and mechanical components.
