Why is 98% V2O5 used to make vanadium iron?

November 24, 2025

Why is 98% V2O5 used to make vanadium iron?

98% V2O5 is commonly used as the primary vanadium source in the production of vanadium iron (FeV), a critical alloy used in making vanadium-containing steels and superalloys. Vanadium iron typically contains 35%–70% vanadium and is produced by reducing V2O5 in the presence of iron ore or scrap in electric arc furnaces or aluminothermic processes.

The 98% purity level of V2O5 ensures that the resulting vanadium iron has sufficient vanadium content while maintaining reasonable production costs. It provides enough vanadium for effective alloying without requiring the expense of ultra-high-purity grades.

The flake form of 98% V2O5 offers good thermal stability and dissolution behavior in molten metal, ensuring even distribution of vanadium in the iron matrix. This leads to consistent chemical composition and improved mechanical properties in the final alloy, such as enhanced strength, toughness, and wear resistance.

Suppliers often provide 98% V2O5 flake with analysis certificates and customized particle sizing to meet the specific needs of vanadium iron smelters and alloy producers.
