Product Description
Iron Vanadium Alloy 60 Percent Vanadium Chunks For Structural Steel Toughening And Deoxidizing
Iron vanadium alloy containing 60% vanadium in chunk form is purpose-built for structural steel applications that require both toughening and effective deoxidation. These medium-density chunks present a dark metallic hue and break down predictably in molten steel, releasing vanadium and assisting in scavenging oxygen and residual gases.
The 60% vanadium level represents an economical yet powerful balance, delivering significant strengthening without excessive alloy cost. Structural steels benefit from two principal actions of this alloy: first, vanadium combines with carbon to generate finely distributed VC particles that hinder grain growth, thereby increasing toughness and impact resistance; second, the alloy acts as a deoxidizer, reacting with dissolved oxygen to form stable oxides that float out as slag, leading to cleaner steel with fewer internal defects.
This dual function is particularly valuable in large-section structural members such as bridges, building frameworks, and offshore platforms, where crack initiation must be minimized. Chunks offer logistical ease compared to powders: they are less dusty, simpler to store, and allow controlled feed rates into ladles or furnaces. Their moderate size encourages gradual dissolution, helping avoid localized compositional spikes.
Product Specifications
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Vanadium Content | 58-62% (nominal 60%) |
| Form | Dark metallic chunks (20-80 mm) |
| Deoxidizing Efficiency | High - effectively removes O₂ and N₂ traces |
| Main Effects | Grain refinement, increased Charpy impact toughness |
