What is black/brown 98% V2O5 flake used for?

 
Black or brown 98% V2O5 flake​ is a commercial-grade vanadium pentoxide​ used in practical industrial applications​ such as steelmaking and catalysis, where good performance and cost-efficiency​ are priorities. The color variation (black or brown) is typically due to minor differences in impurity levels or calcination processes, but the material generally maintains around 98% purity.
In steelmaking, this flake is used to introduce vanadium​ into molten steel to produce high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels, tool steels, and spring steels. Vanadium enhances strength, hardness, and wear resistance​ by forming fine carbides and nitrides during heat treatment. The flake structure​ ensures better melting behavior and uniform distribution​ in the steel bath.
For catalytic applications, such as sulfuric acid production or industrial emission controls, black/brown 98% V2O5 flake acts as a stable and effective oxidizing agent. It performs reliably in fixed-bed or fluidized-bed reactors​ under moderate to high temperatures.
Its robust flake form​ allows for easy storage, transportation, and dosing, making it a convenient choice for large-scale industrial operations. Suppliers often provide this grade with quality assurance and customization options, ensuring it meets the needs of cost-sensitive yet performance-driven applications.
