Description of Vanadium Metal Powder
Vanadium powder, valued for its high strength, thermal stability, and unique alloying properties, is ideal for applications in aerospace, energy storage, and advanced manufacturing. The spherical form and consistent particle size offer superior flowability and packing density, making it essential for powder metallurgy, 3D printing, and high-performance manufacturing processes, particularly in vanadium alloys and energy systems.
Vanadium nanopowder, with its high surface area, enhances reactivity and effectiveness in catalysis and energy storage, particularly in vanadium redox flow batteries and hydrogen storage. The nano-sized particles also improve sintering behavior, optimizing production of high-density components across sectors such as aerospace, automotive, and renewable energy storage.

Spheroidization of Pure-vanadium Powder using Radio Frequency Thermal Plasma Process
In the present work, spheroidization of angular vanadium powders using a radio frequency (RF) thermal plasma process is investigated. Initially, angular vanadium powders are spheroidized successfully at an average particle size of 100 µm using the RF-plasma process. It is difficult to avoid oxide layer formation on the surface of vanadium powder during the RF-plasma process. Titanium/vanadium/stainless steel functionally graded materials are manufactured with vanadium as the interlayer. Vanadium intermediate layers are deposited using both angular and spheroidized vanadium powders.
