Eagle Alloys Corporation is a leading global supplier of commercially pure niobium (Nb). この要素, 一般的にブラジルとカナダで見られる, 主に合金で使用され、特にガスパイプラインで使用される鋼に重点が置かれています。. ニオブは炭化物や窒化物を除去して鋼の強化に役立ちます. その間, 温度安定性があるため, niobium is useful for making jet and rocket engines. Niobium alloys offer excellent thermal resistance and processability.
Niobium is Ductile and Malleable
原則として, niobium is highly ductile and malleable. その融点は 2,468 摂氏度. Resistant to corrosion, it becomes super conductive at cryogenic temperatures and can conduct electricity with zero resistance. People in the sciences and medical fields are, perhaps, familiar with niobium because of its importance to those industries.
Niobium is Used in Many Industrial Businesses
Niobium is actually quite helpful in many industrial businesses. Considered a “technology-critical element,” it can help improve high-temperature oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance of things like steel. It can also improve the toughness of steel. Its low toxicity and iridescence make it popular for jewelry and numismatics. It also works well in the superconducting magnets of MRI scanners. Other industries where niobium is utilized include welding, optics (in the manufacture of lenses), and electronics.
Niobium Helps With Capacitors
When it comes to electronics, niobium can be used to help make capacitors. It’s also used for infrared laser technology. You might find it in electron tubes or electronic vacuum devices since it has a high melting point, a high emission electron capacity and can attract air.
Because of its properties, niobium also is used in the atomic energy industry. From nuclear fuels to atomic reactors, niobium plays a role.
In the medical field, niobium can be used in surgical instruments, skull plate screws, bone plates and more since it has good biological compatibility.
These are just some examples of how niobium helps industrial businesses. For more information about this element/alloy, Eagle Alloys までお電話ください。 800-237-9012 Eagle AlloysはISO認定企業であり、最高品質のレニウムを以上に供給してきました。 sales@eaglealloys.com.
