Product Overview
Vanadium lump is a high-purity metal material with excellent physical and chemical properties. Vanadium has a high melting point of 1890°C, a boiling point of 3380°C, and a density of 6.0g/cm³. Vanadium lumps exhibit strong corrosion resistance, particularly in acidic environments like hydrochloric and sulfuric acids. Additionally, vanadium remains stable in air and does not easily oxidize. It is widely used in high-tech fields that require excellent high-temperature and corrosion resistance. The chemical properties of vanadium are similar to those of tantalum and niobium, and it is commonly used in the production of alloy steels and catalysts.
Key Features
