Sodium metavanadate is a chemical compound of sodium with vanadium and oxygen from the group of vanadates .
Occurrence
Sodium metavanadate occurs naturally in the mineral metamunirite .
Extraction and presentation
Sodium metavanadate can be made by reacting sodium hydroxide with vanadium (V) oxide .
properties
Sodium metavanadate occurs in two different crystal structures (alpha and beta). The orthorhombic β-structure is more stable at room temperature , while the monoclinic α-phase is present at higher temperatures . In addition, a dihydrate is known; this crystallizes out of aqueous solution below 307.75 K, but quickly converts to β-sodium metavanadate in the air, releasing water of crystallization .
use
Sodium metavanadate is used as an intermediate product in the extraction of vanadium from corresponding ores and as a component of corrosion protection agents , as a catalyst and in the paint, glass and ceramic industries.
