Vanadium (V)
- Description
Description
Vanadium is a white-silver metal that is most commonly found in the aerospace, medical, and automotive industries.
The most important use of vanadium is as an additive for steel, with approximately 80% of vanadium going into ferrovanadium, a steel additive. It is used for the production of rust resistant for spring and high speed tool steels. It is applied to add to steels to stabilize carbides. Vanadium foil is also used to bond titanium to steel.
High purity Vanadium is used as E-beam evaporation materials to make thin films deposition, metallization, encapsulation and surface modification. It is also used to make sputtering targets.
