Product Name Niobium Electrode Mesh
Model Nb1 Nb2
Density 8.57 g/cm3
Melting Point 2468
Characteristic
(1) Niobium is a gray white metal with a melting point of 2468 â??, a boiling point of 4742 â??, and a density of 8.57 grams per cubic centimeter. Niobium is a glossy gray metal with paramagnetism, belonging to Group 5 of the periodic table. High purity niobium metal has high ductility, but it becomes harder with increasing impurity content. Its outermost electron layer arrangement is very different from the other Group 5 elements. The same phenomenon also occurs on the ruthenium (44), rhodium (45), and palladium (46) elements before and after.
(2) Niobium exhibits superconducting properties at low temperatures. At standard atmospheric pressure, its critical temperature is 9.2K, which is the highest among all elemental superconductors. Its magnetic penetration depth is also the highest among all elements. Niobium is one of the three elemental type II superconductors, the other two being vanadium and technetium. The purity of niobium metal greatly affects its superconducting properties.
Niobium has a low capture cross-section for thermal neutrons, making it quite useful in the nuclear industry.
Application
(1) Tantalum niobium mesh can withstand high temperatures, has good strength and stiffness, and is a high-quality material for making heating components, insulation components, and loading vessels for vacuum high-temperature furnaces
(2) Tantalum mesh niobium mesh is used in the aerospace industry to produce engine components for aerospace aircraft, rockets, submarines, and more, such as combustion chambers, combustion mesh ducts, turbopumps, and so on.
(3) Tantalum wire mesh niobium wire mesh is a high-quality aerospace material used for rocket accelerator nozzles, spacecraft propulsion systems, nozzle valves, and more.
(4) Niobium tantalum mesh can be used to make capacitors and lining for armor piercing bullets.
(5) Niobium mesh has a small neutron capture cross-section, high thermal conductivity and strength, and is used as a nuclear fuel cladding material, nuclear fuel alloy additive, and heat exchanger structural material in atomic reactors.
