Chemical Composition

Properties of superconducting material

1. Zero resistive

2. Complete diamagnetism Superconductivity is used in magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance machines for medical and scientific instruments.

3. Josephson effect

4. Isotopic effect

· Niobium titanium alloy is an important alloyed superconductor material. Its superconductive transition temperature is 8K to 10K. If other elements are added into the alloy, superconductivity will be improved.

· Niobium titanium alloy is sintered from alloyed powder. We use vacuum electrode arc furnace or electron-beam furnace to melt the alloyed ingots. The niobium titanium alloys can be in various forms such as sheet, bar, wire, or target.

Applications of Niobium Titanium Alloy

1. it is used in superconducting industry. It is strong enough to be used in aerospace industry.

2.50%Nb50%Ti is a very important alloy, it is a superconductor at temperatures below 43K. Its alloy wire is usually wrapped in copper. The most popular application of these Nb-Ti Superconductors in the market is to manufacture Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) scanners used in medical institutions.

3. Nb-Ti alloy (Nb-45% Ti) is used to manufacture light fasteners on aircrafts.

4. The potential demands for Niobium Superconductors in the future are mainly from nuclear fusion reactors, high-speed maglev trains, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) power plants, and the storage and transmission of underground capacity. There might be more complex superconductors (such as high Te superconductors) coming out in the future to compete with Niobium Superconductors.

5. Nb-55Ti can be used in anti-corrosion engineering.

6. Nb-55Ti is used for high pressure equipment to filter Gold and Nickel in high pressure and high concentration oxygen environment. Niobium also acts as flame retardant in this environment.

7. Niobium-containing Titanium alloys, such as IMI367, are used in surgical implants, particularly in the production of femoral components for hip repair surgery.

8.Because of its excellent superconducting properties, niobium titanium wire can be processed into superconducting cables, which has a broad prospect in the field of superconducting computers.

Packing of Niobium Titanium Alloy

Standard Packing:

Typical bulk packaging includes palletized plastic 5 gallon/25 kg. pails, fiber and steel drums to 1 ton super sacks in full container (FCL) or truck load (T/L) quantities. Research and sample quantities and hygroscopic, oxidizing or other air sensitive materials may be packaged under argon or vacuum. Solutions are packaged in polypropylene, plastic or glass jars up to palletized 440 gallon liquid totes Special package is available on request.

ATTs’Niobium Titanium Alloy is carefully handled to minimize damage during storage and transportation and to preserve the quality of our products in their original condition.
