What is Niobium Powder & Low Oxygen Niobium Powder used for?
Niobium powder is an effective microalloy element which is used in steelmaking, and highly used in production of superalloys and high-entropy alloys. Niobium is used in prosthetics and implant devices, such as pacemakers because it is physiologically inert and hypoallergenic. Besides, niobium powders are required as a raw material, in the fabrication of electrolytic capacitors. In addition, niobium micron powder is also used in its pure form to make superconducting accelerating structures for particle accelerators. Niobium powders are used in making alloys which are used in surgical implants because they do not react with human tissue.
Niobium Powder (Nb Powder) Applications:
• Niobium powder is used as additives to alloys & raw materials to make welding rods & refractory materials, etc.
• High-temperature components, especially for the aerospace industry
• Alloy additions, including some for superconducting materials. The second largest application for niobium is in nickel-based superalloys.
• Magnetic Fluid Materials
• Plasma spray coatings
• Filters
• Certain corrosion-resistant applications
