FeV Alloy Granules 50 Mesh Fine Grain Metallic Silver
FeV alloy granules (50 mesh, ~300 µm) in metallic silver represent a specialized form of ferrovanadium, optimized for high-strength alloy production where uniform distribution and rapid dissolution are critical. Finer than standard lumps or briquettes, these granules leverage their small particle size to accelerate melting and homogenization in molten metal baths, making them ideal for advanced alloys used in aerospace, defense, and energy sectors.
Their metallic silver sheen signals high purity, with minimal oxidation, ensuring predictable alloying outcomes. High-strength alloys, such as nickel-based superalloys or titanium aluminides, require precise control over elemental dispersion to achieve targeted mechanical properties (e.g., yield strength >1000 MPa, creep resistance at 800°C+).
FeV granules excel here: their 50-mesh fineness allows rapid dissolution, preventing localized vanadium enrichment that could cause brittle phases. Instead, vanadium integrates uniformly, forming nanoscale carbides and intermetallics that strengthen the matrix via dispersion hardening. This results in alloys with superior load-bearing capacity and resistance to cyclic stress—essential for jet engine components, turbine blades, and deep-sea pressure vessels.
Additional benefits of 50-mesh FeV granules include compatibility with powder metallurgy processes, where they can be blended with other alloy powders for net-shape manufacturing. Their low surface area-to-volume ratio reduces oxidation during storage, preserving reactivity.
