Potassium orthovanadate
What is Potassium orthovanadate?
Potassium orthovanadate (CAS 14293-78-8), also referenced commercially as tripotassium vanadate, is an inorganic vanadium salt used primarily as a catalyst and catalyst precursor in industrial chemical processes.
Where is Potassium orthovanadate used?
- Catalyst manufacturing: precursor for vanadium-based oxidation catalysts
- Sulfuric acid production and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems
- Mining and metals: hydrometallurgical processing, leaching and recovery operations, including vanadium pentoxide production
- Research and specialty chemicals: supported vanadium catalysts on oxide carriers for oxidative dehydrogenation and other gas-phase reactions
- Electrochemical research: vanadium redox flow battery electrolyte development
- It delivers a soluble, high-purity source of vanadium where controlled reactivity and precise vanadium loading are required.
Commercial specifications
- Technical and high-purity reagent grades
- Purity typically 98% to 99.9%+ depending on application
- Laboratory-scale quantities and bulk industrial lots
