On this page I'll provide comprehensive data for Vanadium. I hope you profit from it.
Vanadium Overview
Name Origin
From Scandinavian goddess, Vanadis.
Symbol
V (Vanadium)Description
Soft, ductile, silvery-white metal. Resistant to corrosion by moisture, air and most acids and alkalis at room temperature.
Discovery
Discovered By: Nils Sefström
Year: 1830
Location: Sweden
Sources
Found in the minerals patronite (VS4), vanadinite [Pb5(VO4)3Cl], and carnotite [K2(UO2)2(VO4)2.3H2O]. Pure metal produced by heating with C and Cl to produce VCl3 which is heated with Mg in Ar atmosphere.
Uses
It is mixed with other metals to make very strong and durable alloys. Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) is used as a catalyst, dye and color-fixer.
