Ferro Niobium

Ferroniobium, which is consumed by steel plants, where it is a key component in the manufacture of specialist high strength steels.rroniobium, which is exported to steel plants, where it is a key component in the manufacture of specialist high strength steels.Niobium, formerly columbium is a lustrous, grey, ductile, paramagnetic metal in group 5 of the periodic table, although it has an atypical configuration in its outermost electron shells compared to the rest of the members. Niobium becomes a superconductor at cryogenic temperatures. Niobium is used as an alloying agent in carbon and alloy steels and in non-ferrous metals, as it improves the strength of the alloy. It is also used in jet engines and rockets. This element has superconductive properties and is used in superconductive magnets which retain their properties in strong magnetic fields. This type of application could be used for the large-scale generation of electricity.
