SM3810 Vanadium Silicide (VSi2) Powder (CAS No. 12039-87-1)

Vanadium Silicide (VSi2) Powder Description:

Vanadium Silicide (VSi2), is a metal prism crystal, with a relative density of 4.42. It’s insoluble in cold water and hot water, soluble in hydrofluoric acid, insoluble in ethanol, ether, and acid. Vanadium Silicide is used to prepare sound-absorbing ceramic materials, and a surface layer with sound-absorbing properties is coated on the surface of the substrate layer, which not only has the sound-absorbing function, but also has good dust-proof and fire-proof properties.

Vanadium Silicide (VSi2) Powder FAQs

Q1: What is Vanadium Silicide (VSi2)?

Vanadium Silicide (VSi2) is a metallic silicide formed from vanadium and silicon, typically in a 1:2 ratio. It's a high-melting-point compound with good electrical conductivity and thermal stability, used in specialized applications like electronics and high-performance materials.

Q2: Is VSi2 powder hazardous?

As with many metallic powders, VSi2 can be harmful if inhaled in large quantities. Proper precautions, such as using a mask or respirator and working in well-ventilated areas, should be taken when handling the powder.

Q3: How is VSi2 powder synthesized?

Solid-State Reaction: VSi2 can be synthesized by heating a mixture of vanadium and silicon powders at high temperatures (around 1200–1600°C) in a vacuum or inert atmosphere.

Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): CVD methods can be used to deposit VSi2 onto surfaces in thin layers.

Sintering: Vanadium and silicon powders are sometimes sintered at high temperatures to form VSi2.
