Niobium cup

Niobium cup is a cup-shaped container made of high-purity niobium (Nb), which has excellent high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. It is widely used in laboratories, medical implants, and special industrial fields.
Product details

Core characteristics of niobium cup

 ✅ Ultra high melting point: 2468 ° C, suitable for high-temperature experiments (such as molten salt and metal melting).

 ✅ Corrosion resistance: resistant to strong acids (except HF), strong bases, and molten metals (such as Li, Na, K).

 ✅ Biocompatibility: Non toxic, non allergenic, certified by ISO 10993, suitable for medical implantation.

 ✅ Superconducting performance: It can be used as a carrier for superconducting devices at low temperatures (<9.2K).

 ✅ Low heat neutron absorption: suitable for neutron experimental containers in the nuclear industry.

Main application scenarios

(1) Laboratory and Research

High temperature melting experiment: Holding molten salts (such as FLiBe), rare earth metals, or oxides.

Single crystal growth: Preparation of semiconductor crystals such as GaAs and InP.

Superconducting research: used as a sample scaffold or reaction vessel in low-temperature environments.

(2) Medical implantation

Dental restoration: Niobium alloy dental crowns or implant abutments (resistant to oral corrosion).

Orthopedic repair: joint cup, bone defect filling material (compatible with human tissue).

(3) Industrial Special Purpose

Chemical catalyst carrier: a reaction vessel that is resistant to acid and alkali corrosion.

Nuclear fuel reprocessing: temporary storage of radioactive materials such as uranium and thorium.

Manufacturing process

Forging/Spinning Forming: High purity niobium plate is stamped or spun into a cup body.

Precision machining: CNC lathe engraving of inner walls, threads and other details.

Surface treatment: electrolytic polishing (medical grade) or tantalum plating (enhanced oxidation resistance).

Vacuum annealing: Relieve stress and improve material ductility.
