Niobium(Nb), a metallic element with a crystalline, grey appearance, boasts remarkable heat resistance and several sought-after qualities for industrial use. It is extensively employed in crafting diverse metal alloys. Even in minimal amounts (as low as 0.1%), niobium profoundly enhances the performance attributes of metals. MetalsTek provides a comprehensive range of niobium products, including pure, alloy, and oxide variants, available in various forms, such as sheets, plates, rods, wires, tubes, strips, foils, and oxides.

Unique Applications
Tantalum and niobium, often referred to as “sister elements,” share several similarities due to their close relationship in the periodic table and their comparable chemical properties. These elements exhibit nearly identical chemical behaviors and physical properties, often occurring together in nature due to their analogous atomic structures.
