What Is Ferrovanadium?

Definition and Basic Nature of FeV Alloy
Ferrovanadium (FeV)​ is a ferroalloy​ — a master alloy of iron (Fe)​ and vanadium (V)​ — used primarily to add vanadium to steel and cast iron.
Property
Typical Range / Description
Main elements
Vanadium: 40–80 % (most common: FeV50 = 50 % V), Iron: balance
Other elements
Small amounts of Al, Si, C (depending on production method)
Appearance
Silver‑gray metallic lumps or crushed pieces
Density
~6.7–7.2 g/cm³ (depends on V content)
Melting point
~1500–1700 °C (varies with composition)
Production method
Reduction of vanadium oxides (V₂O₅) with Fe or Al/Si in electric arc furnace
Key Points
  • Produced by reducing vanadium pentoxide​ with iron or aluminum in a furnace.
  • Main purpose: introduce vanadium into molten metal efficiently.
  • Acts as a strong carbide former​ and grain refiner​ in steel.
