I-melting point ye-niobium yi-2468 Dc, kwaye ubuninzi bayo yi-8.6 g / cm3. Ngeempawu zokuxhathisa i-corrosion, ukumelana nobushushu obuphezulu kunye nokuguquguquka, i-niobium isetyenziswa ngokubanzi kwishishini le-electronics, i-industry yensimbi, imboni yeekhemikhali, i-optics, ukuveliswa kwamatye anqabileyo, iteknoloji ye-superconducting, i-aerospace. iteknoloji kunye nezinye iinkalo. Iphepha le-Niobium kunye ne-tube / umbhobho yindlela eqhelekileyo yemveliso ye-Nb.
