1. Imali: Ezinhlamvu zemali, igolide nesiliva kanye ne-ultrafine niobium nanopowder ngezinye izikhathi kusetshenziswa ndawonye njengensimbi eyigugu ezinhlamvu zemali.
2. Ama-Super Alloys: ingxenye enkulu ye-niobium eya kwifomu yensimbi emsulwa noma esesimweni se-niobium ehlanzekile kakhulu ne-niobium iron-nickel alloy, esetshenziswa ekukhiqizeni umhlaba we-nickel, i-chromium kanye ne-iron-base super alloys. Lawa ma-alloys angasetshenziswa ezinjinini ze-jet, izinjini ze-turbine yegesi, izingxenye ze-rocket, ama-turbocharger kanye nokushisa kwemishini yokuvutha;
3. Steel Isicelo: in ahlukahlukene micro-alloying izakhi ngensimbi, imfucuza niobium iyingxenye ephumelela kakhulu micro-alloying, indima niobium mkhulu kangangokuthi ama-athomu ensimbi anothe ku-athomu niobium, singakwazi ukufeza ngcono ukusebenza Izinjongo Steel. Empeleni Insimbi yengezwe i-0.001% -0.1% niobium, yanele ukushintsha izakhiwo zensimbi zensimbi;
