Vanadium Nitride Powder Production Process

Using the reduction method. The chemically measured carbon and vanadium pentoxide are mixed thoroughly in a nitrogen atmosphere at 1250 ℃ for a reduction-nitridation reaction to produce vanadium nitride. Also can be produced by a nitrogen-hydrogen gas mixture with vanadium tetrachloride at 1400-1600 ℃ or ammonia (NH3) with ammonium metavanadate (NH4VO3) at 1000-1100°C for a reaction.

Vanadium Nitride Powder Applications

• Used for the preparation of epitaxial materials in optoelectronic and energy devices.
• Used as a positive electrode material for lithium-ion batteries or sodium-ion batteries.
• Used as a catalyst, facilitating chemical reactions by promoting reaction rates and selectivity.
• Used in the production of hard coatings.
• Used in the preparation of high-performance ceramic materials.

Vanadium Nitride Powder Storage and Packing

Vanadium Nitride Powder product is packed in inert gas-filled plastic bags. We can provide subpackages with different quantities according to the customer's requirements. Vanadium Nitride Powder product is sealed and stored in a dry, cool environment, not exposed to air, to prevent oxidation agglomeration by moisture, affecting the dispersion performance and use effect.
