    Vanadium

    Vanadium

    Vanadium is silvery-white ductile solid and insoluble in water.it is resistant to corrosion but soluble in nitric, hydrofluoric, and concentrated sulfuric acids. If it is attacked by alkali, it forms water-soluble vanadates. It acts as either a metal or non-metal and forms various complex compounds, and it is non-toxic as metal. Vanadium cannot be readily anodized like other reactive and refractory metals. Tantalum forms the best anodic films for capacitors, but vanadium (although forming a protective oxide at low temperatures) will not respond to normal anodizing techniques. The principle oxide of vanadium is V2O5, which melts at 675℃ and is corrosive. Vanadium and its alloys must be fabricated below the oxide's melting point or protected from an oxidizing atmosphere in higher temperatures usage. 
    AEM can provide pure vanadium products as well as Vanadium Carbide with high quality and competitive prices.
    Below are some of our standard Vanadium and Vanadium compound products. If you require customized products, please contact us by email.
