Fe-Nb

1. Introduce – This alloy is formed by combining iron (Fe) and niobium (Nb). Commercial FeNb65 typically contains approximately 60–66% Nb, with the overall market composition ranging from about 40–75% – It is generally produced via the thermite process, in which a mixture of iron oxide (Fe₂O₃) and niobium pentoxide (Nb₂O₅) is reduced with aluminum at high temperatures – An excellent alloying element for high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels, where adding ≤0.1% Nb improves strength and toughness. 2.
