Adding a few percent of the vanadium in the steel, it can increase the elasticity of steel, strength, wear resistance and resistance to bursting is very good, both high temperature resistance and resistance to cold, no wonder in the automotive, aviation, railway, electronics technology, defense industry and other sectors, everywhere can be seen traces of vanadium. In addition, vanadium oxide has become one of the best catalysts in the chemical industry, known as "chemical bread".
Mainly used to manufacture high speed cutting steel and other alloy steel and catalyst. Vanadium steel can be made by mixing vanadium into steel. Vanadium steel is more compact than ordinary steel structure, higher toughness, elasticity and mechanical strength. An armed-piercing projectile of vanadium steel, capable of piercing steel plates up to 40 centimeters thick. However, in the iron and steel industry, the pure vanadium metal is not added to the steel vanadium steel, but directly from vanadium containing iron ore into vanadium steel.
Vanadium has many excellent physical and chemical properties, so vanadium is widely used, known as the metal "vitamin". Most of the original vanadium was used in steel, which increased the strength, toughness and wear resistance of steel by refining the structure and grain size of steel and increasing the grain roughness temperature.
Later, the excellent improvement of vanadium in titanium alloy was gradually discovered and applied to the field of aerospace, which made a breakthrough in the aerospace industry. With the rapid development of science and technology, the requirement of new materials is increasing day by day. Vanadium is more and more widely used in non-steel fields, including aerospace, chemistry, batteries, pigments, glass, optics, medicine and many other fields.
