Niobium Sheet is a cold rolled and vacuum annealed product made up of niobium. The commercially pure niobium products are used in high end applications such as super coolers, superconductors and supercolliders in particle acceleration applications. Navstar Steel is a supplier of the Niobium Plate in different grades and dimensions. There are various forms of the sheets such as the coils, foils and strips.
Niobium is a shiny, white, soft, and ductile metal, and takes on a bluish cast when exposed to air at room temperatures for a long time. The metal starts to oxidize in air at 200°C, and when processed at even moderate temperatures must be placed in a protective atmosphere.
Niobium is used in arc-welding rods for stabilized grades of stainless steel. Thousands of pounds of niobium have been used in advanced air frame systems such as were used in the Gemini space program. The element has superconductive properties; superconductive magnets have been made with Nb-Zr wire, which retains its superconductivity in strong magnetic fields. This type of application offers hope of direct large-scale generation of electric power. Niobium is also commonly used for jewelry.
