What is CAS 7440-03-1 | Niobium

 

Niobium transforms materials is a unique metal with properties that make it an ideal choice for a variety of applications, providing innovative and sustainable solutions for infrastructure, transportation and electrification, a truly essential key to a greener future.Niobium is roughly 10 times more abundant in the crust of the Earth than is tantalum. Niobium, more plentiful than lead and less abundant than copper in the Earth's crust, occurs dispersed except for relatively few minerals. Of these minerals, the columbite–tantalite series, in which columbite (FeNb2O6) and tantalite (FeTa2O6) occur in highly variable ratios, is the main commercial source. Pyrochlore, a calcium sodium niobate, is also the principal commercial source. Natural niobium occurs entirely as the stable isotope niobium-93.

Niobium Delivers Cost Benefits to Steel Mills

 

Small amounts, lower costs

Among the microallying elements, niobium is used in the lowest amounts. Just up to 0.020% Nb is enough to provide the required strength and ductility levels, and this lean alloy design results in lower costs.

Niobium increases strength with high productivity processes

Niobium increases strength in rebar grades by better conditioning of the microstructure through solute drag and austenite grain pinning during hot work. Unlike the process for plates, beams and shapes, rebar grades do not require thermomechanical controlled processing (TMCP) to achieve grain refinement.

Process of CAS 7440-03-1 | Niobium
 

Annealing
Niobium cannot be annealed using traditional jewelry-making methods; annealing must be done in a vacuum chamber with inert gas and is typically done in an industrial setting. Although the metal is very tough, once annealed, it stays soft and is very slow to work-harden.

 

Forming
Very ductile, niobium is extremely easy to form and manipulate--even wood tools effectively move the metal. In rolling, drawing and forging, the metal can be reduced up to 90%. In deep-drawing, where the draw is less deep than the metal diameter, niobium conforms beautifully; for multiple draws, pull at least 40% of the desired depth on the first draw. Use a tallow or drawing wax to lubricate. Note: Drawing is not recommended; in drawing, it is not advisable to use standard draw plates with the usual lubricants; a special (very costly) commercial lubricant would be required.

 

Drilling and Cutting
Niobium can be done with high-speed twist drills, checking often to watch for excessive wear. Use a good lubricant, such as a vegetable or water-soluble oil, water alone is not sufficient.

 

Blanking and Punching
Use steel dies or punches with a lubricant. Allow a clearance of at least 6% of the metal thickness.

 

Machining
The typical machining processes (surface speed approx. 80 ft./min.) are effective on niobium, which performs much like copper. Lubrication is a must, as the metal tends to gall easily. Avoid allowing shavings and chips to build up; this build-up can cause excess heat and pressure to accumulate and result in tool damage.

 

Grinding
Grinding niobium, though not easy, can be accomplished using silicon carbide wheels or rubber-impregnated wheels; again, always use a cooling lubricant.

 

Mass Finishing
Using standard vibratory machines, mass finishing of niobium pieces can be accomplished if the media and equipment are kept extremely clean and the media used is dedicated only to niobium work. Note: Media is a must; do not burnish niobium on itself. Avoid using highly concentrated compounds and do not over-process.

 

Niobium Research and Future Potential

 

 
 

Energy Sector Innovations
