Ferrovanadium
Ferrovanadium is a kind of iron alloy, which can be obtained by reducing vanadium pentoxide with carbon in an electric furnace, and can also be obtained by reducing vanadium pentoxide by electric furnace silicothermal method.
- Grade: Customized
- Size: Customized
It is widely used as an element additive for smelting vanadium-containing alloy steel and alloy cast iron, and is also used to manufacture permanent magnets. Ferrovanadium produced in China includes V401, V402 and other varieties, containing about 40% vanadium

Mainly used for smelting alloy steel. About 90% of the vanadium consumed in the world is used in the steel industry
1. In ordinary low alloy steel, vanadium mainly refines grains, increases the strength of steel and inhibits its aging effect;
2. in alloy structural steel, it refines grains, increases the strength and toughness of steel;
3. in spring steel, it is combined with chromium or manganese Use together to increase the elastic limit of steel and improve its quality;
4. in tool steel, it mainly refines the structure and grain of steel, increases the tempering stability of steel, enhances its secondary hardening effect, improves its wear resistance, and prolongs The service life of tools;
5. in heat-resistant steel and hydrogen-resistant steel, vanadium also plays a beneficial role;
6. vanadium added to cast iron promotes the formation of pearlite due to the formation of carbides, stabilizes cementite, and the shape of graphite particles is fine and Uniform and refine the grains of the matrix, thus improving the hardness, tensile strength and wear resistance of the casting
