What is Niobium Wire?

The Cas No. of Nb wire is 7440-03-1.
Pure Niobium Wire are types of thin wires made of niobium metal. Niobium Wire 99.95% has excellent corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity and high melting point. Nb Wire 9N5 is widely used in electronic components, superconducting materials and aerospace.

Columbium wire is especially used in manufacturing equipment that operates in high temperature environments. Because of the good mechanical properties and chemical stability of Cb wire, niobium wire also has important applications in the medical device and nuclear industry.

The application of Nb Wire

Pure Niobium is a commonly used superconductor material, and Niobium wire can be used to manufacture superconductor wires, superconducting magnets, etc., for applications in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear fusion, particle accelerators and other fields. Because Pure niobium has good high temperature performance, Nb wire can be used as parts in high temperature environments, such as high temperature reactors, high temperature containers, etc. In research laboratories, Pure Niobium wire can be used to manufacture components for a variety of experimental equipment, such as accessories in vacuum systems, clamps, laboratory sample holders, etc. Niobium wire can also be used to manufacture electwirees, capacitors and other components in electronic devices due to its good electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. Nb wire can be used to manufacture various components in high temperature vacuum equipment, such as brackets in vacuum furnaces, heating elements, etc. Niobium wire is also widely used in jewelry industry. After anodizing treatment, Nb wire will be colorful. niobium wire can be made into niobium necklace, niobium earrings, niobium bracelet and so on.

In addition to Niobium Wire, we also produce Niobium Tube & Pipe, Niobium Ingot, Niobium Pellets, Niobium Foil & Strip, Niobium Sheet & Plate, Niobium Disc, Niobium Shield, Niobium Target
