Vanadium Carbide, Powder, 99.997%, -400 mesh (12 mic aps)

Vanadium carbide is used as a target material in physical vapor deposition to create hard, wear-resistant thin films on cutting tools and mechanical components.

Used in thermal spray processes to provide surface coatings that offer high hardness and protection against abrasive wear and corrosion.

Added to steel and other alloys to refine grain size and improve hardness, strength, and wear resistance through the formation of stable carbides.

Utilized for its high melting point and chemical stability in high-temperature industrial environments and specialized ceramic applications.
