Niobium alloy, an alloy formed by adding several elements to niobium as the base, is an important refractory metal material. It mainly includes niobium hafnium alloy, niobium tungsten alloy, niobium zirconium alloy, niobium titanium alloy, niobium tungsten hafnium alloy, niobium tantalum tungsten alloy and niobium titanium aluminum alloy. Niobium alloy usually maintains the low-temperature plasticity of pure niobium, and has much higher strength and other properties than pure niobium. Among the tungsten, molybdenum, tantalum and niobium refractory metal materials, niobium alloy has the highest specific strength.
