Niobium
Niobium is the 41st element on the periodic table. Also known as Columbium, it is a high-performance metal used in specialty applications. Niobium’s strong mechanical performance at high temperatures, up to 2,000C, has found applications for extreme temperature conditions – that include improving other alloys’ temperature performance, superconducting materials, electronics, optics, and next generation aviation and space vehicles seeking to reach beyond hypersonic speeds. All niobium applications benefit from a secure and reliable source of niobium powders.
Powdermet is a domestic supplier of securely sourced niobium and niobium alloy powders.
Powdermet provides 25+ years of experience in powder processing and handling. Powdermet guarantees chemistry and composition of its niobium powder– low oxide and nitride impurities. A range of niobium powder particle sizes and distributions are available. Particle shape may be modified through Powdermet’s proprietary and trade processing technologies.
