Thicker discs will be named as cylinder, block, etc.

Niobium is a rare metal that has a wide range of uses, including:
Alloys: Niobium is often added to steel to increase its strength and toughness. Niobium alloys have a variety of uses, including:
Jet engines and rockets: Niobium superalloys, such as nickel-niobium, are used in jet engines and rockets because they maintain stability.
Oil and gas pipelines: Niobium-reinforced steel is used in oil and gas pipelines.
Bridges and skyscrapers: Niobium increases the strength and lightness of steel used in bridges and skyscrapers.
Nuclear reactors: Niobium is used in nuclear reactor control rods for its corrosion resistance and low neutron absorption.
Superconducting magnets: Niobium is used in superconducting magnets for particle accelerators, MRI scanners, and NMR equipment.
Optical glass: Niobium oxide is used in lanthanum borate glass, which has a high refractive index and is used in corrective eyewear.
Jewelry: Niobium can be used to create brilliant colors on its surface.
Cutting tools: Niobium carbide is used in cutting tool compositions.
Ceramic capacitors: Niobium oxide is used in ceramic capacitors.
Niobium is extracted from ores such as columbite and pyrochlore.

Niobium is a chemical element with the symbol Nb and atomic number 41. It is a soft, grey, ductile transition metal. It has physical and chemical properties similar to the element tantalum, and the two are therefore difficult to distinguish.

We provide Nb metal, Nb alloys, superconducting materials, Nb compounds, etc.
