Vanadium is a transition metal known for its high strength, corrosion resistance, and ability to form stable alloys with iron, titanium, and other base metals. It is primarily used as an alloying element rather than in pure form, significantly improving hardness, fatigue resistance, and wear properties in steel and superalloys. Engineers select vanadium-containing alloys for demanding applications requiring superior mechanical performance at elevated temperatures and exposure to aggressive chemical environments.
