Vanadium

Vanadium Ingot

MATERIAL OVERVIEW

Characteristics: Silvery-white ductile solid. Insoluble in water. Resistant to corrosion, but soluble in nitric, hydrofluoric and concentrated sulfuric acids. Attacked by alkali, forming water soluble vanadates. Acts as either a metal or nonmetal, and forms a variety of complex compounds. Nontoxic as metal.
