DESCRIPTION
These carbides are extremely hard and provide strengthening effects to the steel matrix. The dispersion of vanadium carbides within the steel microstructure impedes the movement of dislocations and increases the material’s resistance to deformation and wear.
Additionally, vanadium in Alloy Hardening Agent ferro vanadium enhances the steel’s response to heat treatment processes, such as quenching and tempering. It aids in the formation of fine-grained structures and precipitates that contribute to the material’s improved mechanical properties.
The use of Alloy Hardening Agent ferro vanadium is widespread in industries such as automotive, construction, and tool manufacturing, where strong and durable materials are required.
