Niobium foil is a high temperature corrosive material that is often used in chemical and medical industries. It is also used in the production of synthetic diamonds. There are several types of niobium foil available. These include Niobium Strip, Niobium Ribbon, and Niobium Foil.

Niobium foil has been used in the fields of cryogenic engineering, superconducting particle accelerators, and cryomodule fabrication. In these applications, the metal is typically supplied with a thickness of 0.020 inches. The material is usually accompanied by a protective coating.

Niobium Foil is a versatile alloy that is available in various shapes and sizes. Some of its uses are in the production of colored jewelry, industrial diamonds, and cryogenic engineering.

Niobium is a silvery, shiny metal that has a atomic number of 41. It is extracted from pyrochlore mineral, which is the primary commercial source. A secondary source is columbite. However, niobium is mostly found in conjunction with tantalum.

Niobium foil is available in a variety of lengths, thicknesses, and widths. Minimum lengths are 50 mm. Widths range from 6 to 25 inches. They are also available in microfoil, coils, and rods.

Niobium can be alloyed with other metals such as titanium, rhenium, and tungsten to produce alloys with higher strength and corrosion resistance. For example, niobium alloys are used in superconducting magnets for MRI scanners.

Niobium is a key element in the production of jet engines. The Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility uses niobium cavities to conduct high energy physics research. Niobium-coated glass is used in computer screens, televisions, and camera lenses.
