Niobates
Materials for piezo ceramics
Niobates are inorganic compounds including niobium, another metallic element, and oxygen. These materials can be used in the production of electroceramic components such as piezoceramics. By using highly reactive niobium precursors in the manufacturing of our niobates, we are able to deliver niobates with high homogeneity and a variety of particle sizes. Our niobate product portfolio includes magnesium niobate (MgNb2O6) and potassium niobate (KNbO3).
Other niobates/tantalates are available upon request.
MAGNESIUM NIOBATE (MgNb206...
Magnesium niobate is a main component in PMN-PT (Lead Magnesium Niobate – Lead Titanate) with extremely high piezoelectric constants
POTASSIUM NIOBATE (KNb03)
Our potassium niobate is used as a dopant for PZT (Lead Zirconate Titanate) in the production of piezo actors and sensors
