Vanadium is the 22 most abundant element in the earth’s crust with an average concentration of 100 ppm. It exists in oxidation states ranging from 2to 5+ with 3+, 4+, and 5+ being the most common oxidation states. Vanadium is primarily used in the production of rust-resistant, spring, and high-speed tool steels; vanadium pentoxide is used in ceramics. Vanadium is released to the environment by ...

Vanadium is an important metal used almost exclusively in ferrous and non-ferrous alloys due to its physicochemical and mechanical properties such as grain refinement, high tensile strength, hardness and fatigue resistance; it has a wide range of uses in the metallurgical and chemical sectors [1–3]. There are mainly three kinds of raw materials, bone coal, vanadium slag and waste vanadium catal...

Vanadium (CAS No. 7440-62-2) is an element that exists in a number of oxidation states ranging from -1 to +5 and can be found in various locales around the world. Absorption of vanadium from the gastrointestinal tract is poor and most ingested vanadium is typically converted to vanadyl. Excretion of absorbed vanadium is primarily via urine while unabsorbed vanadium is mainly eliminated in feces...

In an attempt to control the film composition, factors affecting the composition of Ni-Fe alloy deposits and their crystal structure have been analyzed as a function of bath composition, cathode current density, bath pH, temperature and an addition of citric acid. antimony electrode revealed that the deposition potential of Fe coincides with the potential where the abrupt increase of pH was obs...

A new alloy for drive-train applications with a significant addition of vanadium is presented. The influence to air-hardening forging steels investigated and discussed. For the investigations, laboratory melt casted forged into rod. mechanical properties microstructure are described compared vanadium-free reference from previous study. component shows high strength hardness in as-forged state (...
