About Niobium Carbide Nb2C

Niobium Carbide Nb2C is a novel type of 2D material known as a MXene, a compound composed of layered nitrides, carbides, or carbonitrides of transition metals. MXenes are synthesized via exfoliation or etching from a bulk three dimensional precursor MAX phase compoun with the general formula Mn+1AXn, where M is a transition metal, A is an element such as aluminum or silicon, and X is either carbon or nitrogen, with n=1, 2, or 3. Selectively removing the A layer from the MAX phase material results in two dimensional layers of the MXene which can be separated by other ions (known as intercalation). MXenes are notable for their properties that combine aspects of both metals and ceramics including excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, heat resistance, easy machinability, and excellent volumetric capacitance. American Elements manufactures a comprehensive catalog of ultra high purity (≥99.999%) MAX phase and MXene materials.

Niobium

See more Niobium products. Niobium (atomic symbol: Nb, atomic number: 41) is a Block D, Group 5, Period 5 element with an atomic weight of 92.90638. Niobium Bohr ModelThe number of electrons in each of niobium's shells is 2, 8, 18, 12, 1 and its electron configuration is [Kr] 4d4 5s1. The niobium atom has a radius of 146 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 207 pm. Niobium was discovered by Charles Hatchett in 1801 and first isolated by Christian Wilhelm Blomstrand in 1864. In its elemental form, niobium has a gray metallic appearance. Niobium has the largest magnetic penetration depth of any element and is one of three elemental type-II superconductors (Elemental Niobiumalong with vanadium and technetium). Niobium is found in the minerals pyrochlore, its main commercial source, and columbite. The word Niobium originates from Niobe, daughter of mythical Greek king Tantalus.
