Description:
Niobium sheet thickness ranges from 0.5 to 3.0 mm. Niobium is typically a gray metal with the following physical properties: melting point of 2468 °C, boiling point of 4742 °C, density of 8.57 g/cm3, higher deformation under compression for high purity niobium metal, making it easier to process into thin niobium sheets; however, as impurities are added and the sheet becomes harder, the material's thermal neutron capture cross section decrease.
Niobium does not interact with air and is incredibly stable in air at normal temperature.
Niobium sheet is frequently utilized in the aerospace industry for high temperature resistant components despite having a lower density than other refractory metals and a greater melting point in its elemental condition.

Niobium Sheet & Niobium Plate Application
Niobium sheet & plate is used in industrial, electric light source, heating and heat shield electric vacuum equipment. High purity niobium sheet has higher requirements for purity and uniformity, it can be used as the cavity material of the superconducting linear collider. The biggest demand for niobium sheet and strip is for steel enterprises, and the materials are mainly used in cold rolling acid washing and immersion tank, jet pump and its system pipe fittings.
