Product Overview
Crystal Vanadium is a moderately reactive metal that shares similar chemical properties with tantalum and niobium. It has various oxidation states and exhibits strong reducing properties. Vanadium is highly regarded for its chemical, physical, and mechanical properties, including a high melting point and exceptional corrosion resistance. It is an ideal material for producing high-performance alloys and catalysts. The physical properties of crystal vanadium include high density, a high melting point, and excellent oxidation resistance.
Key Features
- High Melting Point and Density:Melting point of 1890°C and a density of 6.0 g/cm³, making it suitable for high-temperature and high-pressure environments.
- Excellent Corrosion Resistance:Resistant to hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and aqua regia; offers superior corrosion resistance to most stainless steels in air, salt, and water environments.
- Good Mechanical Properties:Mohs hardness of 7, suitable for high-strength applications.
- Multiple Oxidation States:Available in +2, +3, +4, and +5 oxidation states, with the +5 oxidation state having strong oxidizing properties.
Applications
- Alloy Steel Production:Primarily used in the production of high-strength materials such as high-speed steel and alloy steel.
- Catalysts:Widely used as a catalyst in various chemical industrial processes.
- Aerospace and Metallurgy:As a critical alloying element, vanadium plays a significant role in high-temperature and high-strength applications.
