Niobium Powder(Nb Powder)

Product Code : ME-Nb-5N-PO

Niobium powder is dark gray or silver gray powder. According to the use of the device is divided into capacitive grade niobium powder and metallurgical grade niobium powder. Because of the defects of niobium capacitor itself, the niobium electrolytic capacitor has not been produced on a large scale. Metallurgical grade niobium powder is used to prepare various niobium materials or as an alloy additive.

Capacitive grade niobium monoxide is prepared by disproportionation reaction of niobium and niobium pentoxide or niobium pentoxide by rare earth metal thermal reduction method. The preparation methods of metallurgical grade niobium powder include metal thermal reduction method, thermal reduction method, molten salt electrolysis method, hydrogen reduction method of niobium chloride, etc.
