Nitrovan® Vanadium

Lowers Cost of Strengthening Steel

Nitrovan® Vanadium

Nitrovan® vanadium is a vanadium-nitrogen product that efficiently strengthens steel more efficiently than ferrovanadium. That allows steelmakers to use less vanadium in high-strength steels and reduce vanadium costs by as much as 40%. Over the past 25 years, cost-conscious steelmakers around the world have saved well over 100 million dollars by using Nitrovan® vanadium.

Detailed information about how Nitrovan® vanadium works and reduces vanadium costs is found on www.nitrovan.com — a Web site devoted exclusively about the benefits of using this unique alloy to strengthen steel.
