that makes the metal resistant to corrosion and attack by acids. paired with its high strength and melting point, niobium's resistance to oxidation make it an important component of alloys and superalloys such as inconel , c , and ferroniobium for high temperature, high stress applications like combustion
equipment, jet engines, rocket assemblies, gas pipeline production, and air frame systems of spacecraft. it is also used in nuclear reactors due to its low neutron absorption cross section. adding niobium to carbon and alloy steels increase their strength, toughness, and machinability. niobium alloys...
