What is Vanadium Alloy Market?
Vanadium, a chemical element with the symbol V, is used primarily in the production of steel alloys and a catalyst for the chemical industry. Vanadium-based alloys exhibit several attractive properties for the fusion environment. The majority of the vanadium produced in China, Russia, and South Africa. Although China is the leading producer of vanadium, the production has reduced from 45,000 MT to 43,000 MT in recent years.
The market study is being classified by Type (Ferrovanadium, Nitride Vanadium and Nitrate & Nitrite Vanadium), by Application (Automotive, Medical, Industrial, Consumer Applications and Other) and major geographies with country level break-up.
