ASTM B392-98 R04200-1 R04210-2 High Purity Niobium Alloy Wire Dia 0.25mm
Description
Pure Niobium wire. Multiple quantities ship uncut as they will be cut off of the pictured roll. You can use it for anything from jewelry to a particle accelerator. Element 41, originally named Columbium, was discovered by an English chemist in North America. The largest deposits are located in Brazil. It is used in small quantities as an alloying agent for steel. Larger percentages are used for superalloys such as C-103 for rocket engines and cryogenic applications that require performance under extreme conditions.
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.
Uses of Niobium
- It is used in stainless steel alloys for cutting tools, nuclear reactors, jets, missiles, and welding rods.
- It is used in the manufacturing of MRI scanners and NMR equipment.
- Its alloys are used in making surgical implants.
- It is used for the production of stainless steel and high-temperature resistant alloys.
