Vanadium Scrap Dealer in India

EDM Tools Industries is a Vanadium Scrap Dealer in India and top Vanadium Scrap Dealer and Supplier in Hyderabad and Mumbai. Pure vanadium is a tough, silvery, non-magnetic transition metal that can also be formed in cold conditions. However, an already small contamination by other elements increases the hardness and thus also reduces the ductility of vanadium. In addition, it is very corrosion resistant. Vanadium is only bound in nature. Important minerals are:

 

  • Partonic
  • Vanadinite
  • Carnotite
  • Descloizite

 

Suppliers for the production of this metal are mainly China, Russia, South Africa and Brazil. This metal is used up to 80% in the form of ferrovanadium. It is therefore a very important alloying metal in tool and structural steels.

Vanadium (V) is a grayish silver metal whose crystal structure is a body-centered cubic (bcc) lattice, with a melting point of 1,926° C (3,499° F). The metal is used principally as an alloying addition to high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels and, to a lesser extent, in tool steels and iron and steel castings. It is also an important strengthener for titanium alloys. Vanadium alloys are promising candidates for applications in nuclear reactors. The metal is recognized as an industrial hazard, however, as breathing of particulate material with a high vanadium content has been observed to cause an intense, dry cough accompanied by irritation of the nose, eyes, and throat.

 

About 80% of the vanadium produced is used as a steel additive. Vanadium-steel alloys are very tough and are used for armor plate, axles, tools, piston rods and crankshafts. Less than 1% of vanadium, and as little chromium, makes steel shock resistant and vibration resistant. Vanadium alloys are used in nuclear reactors because of vanadium’s low neutron-absorbing properties.

Vanadium(V) oxide is used as a pigment for ceramics and glass, as a catalyst and in producing superconducting magnets.
