Niobium plates and rods

Niobium Alloys are very attractive high-temperature materials with very good high-temperature strength and good low-temperature plasticity. In addition, niobium has a series of excellent properties such as small thermal neutron absorption cross section, resistance to liquid metal corrosion and good superconductivity (e.g., Nb3Sn intermetallic compounds, palladium-mistake alloys, and niobium-titanium alloys), making niobium alloys considered to be one of the most promising high-temperature materials.
Niobium alloy industrial production, the first powder made of alloy billet, and then high temperature sintering method or casting method to obtain ingot billet or casting, but the casting method used most, casting method and to the electronic East melting and electric arc furnace melting is the main.

Niobium alloy billet production generally have the reduction method and powder gold method two kinds. Reduction method, also known as primary reduction method, is niobium oxide to join the reductant niobium carbide and alloying elements, through the ingredients mixing, pressing molding, reduction in a vacuum furnace, to obtain the alloy billet.

Powder metallurgy method, also known as secondary reduction method, is the first carbothermal reduction method to obtain metal niobium powder, and then add alloying elements, the vacuum reduction and obtain alloy billet niobium alloy sintering or melting and casting equipment and metal niobium the same as niobium, for niobium alloy billet sintering of the main equipment for the vacuum pendant melting furnace and vacuum intermediate frequency induction furnace, used for the melting and casting of the equipment is mainly used in the electronic East melting furnace and vacuum self-consumption arc furnace. The sintering or casting process of niobium alloys is also very similar to that of metals and will not be repeated here.
