O le mea faʻafefete o le niobium o le 2468 Dc, ma o le mamafa o le 8.6 g / cm3. Faatasi ai ma uiga o le corrosion teteʻe, maualuga le vevela tetee ma le malleability, niobium e masani ona faʻaaogaina i mea tau eletise, alamanuia uʻamea, alamanuia vailaʻau, optics, gaosiga maʻa, superconducting tekinolosi, aerospace. tekinolosi ma isi matata. Niobium laupepa ma paipa / paipa o le ituaiga sili ona taatele o oloa Nb.
