Introduction to vanadium flakes
Molecular formula: V2O5
Vanadium pentoxide is an inorganic metal oxide; gray-black flake; CAS number is 1314-62-1; molecular weight is 181.88; relative density (water = 1) is 3.357; melting point is 690 ℃; boiling point is 1750 ℃ ​​(decomposition); soluble in acid and alkali, slightly soluble in water (PH= 3.5-3.6), insoluble in alcohol.
Vanadium is known as the "metal vitamin" and is widely used in many fields such as steel, metallurgy, petrochemicals, rubber, enamel, aerospace, batteries, pigments, glass, optics, paints, electronics, and medicine. Vanadium flakes are mainly used in the steel industry. By refining the structure and grains of steel and increasing the grain coarsening temperature, they can increase the strength, toughness and wear resistance of steel. In addition, vanadium flakes have excellent improvement effects in titanium alloys and are used as additives in the aerospace field.
