Product Description

Ferrovanadium (FeV) Product Introduction

I. Product Introduction

Ferrovanadium is a ferroalloy whose main components are vanadium and iron, also containing impurities such as sulfur, phosphorus, silicon, and aluminum. It is obtained by reducing vanadium pentoxide (V₂O₅) with carbon in an electric furnace, or by reducing vanadium pentoxide via the electric furnace silico-thermal method. Ferrovanadium is widely used as an alloy additive in the smelting of vanadium-containing alloy steels and alloy cast irons. In recent years, it has also been used in the manufacture of permanent magnets.

Key physical properties:

Melting Point: 1887°C
Boiling Point: 3337°C
Color: Grey with metallic luster
CAS No.: 12604-58-9

II. Product Grades and Chemical Composition

Ferrovanadium is classified into nine grades under GB/T 4139-2012 based on vanadium and impurity content. The following table shows the main grades and chemical compositions (referenced from GB/T 4139-2012):
