Recovery of vanadium oxide from steelmaking slag is of great interest for Swedish steel producers and the technique for assessing the oxidation state of vanadium is crucial in the optimization of vanadium recovery. There is a large spread in the reported values of published V2p3/2 binding energy values for various oxidation states of vanadium. Therefore, an extensive analysis of vanadium oxide standards was performed aimed at obtaining reliable data and improved methods for the preparation of representative oxide standards. Powdered oxide standards of V2O5, VO2, V2O3, and VO, with purity better than 99%, were chosen. In their as‐received state, all of the standards are covered by a thin layer of vanadium pentoxide that does not allow accurate evaluation of X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy spectra for vanadium oxides at lower oxidation states. Therefore, different methods for obtaining a representative surface for vanadium oxide standards were tested. The experimental results show hi...
In-situ monitoring of vanadium dioxide formation using high-temperature XRD
Powder Diffraction, 2014
The monoclinic-to-tetragonal phase transition (~70 °C) in vanadium dioxide (VO2) strongly impacts the infrared properties, which enables its use in applications such as smart window devices. Synthesis of VO2 can be challenging due to the variability of vanadium oxide phases that may be formed. We have employed high-temperature X-ray diffraction (HTXRD) to monitor the reaction process of vanadium oxide precursor powders to form the desired tetragonal VO2 phase. Single-phase tetragonal VO2 was formed within 30 min at 420 °C in flowing N2 gas (~50 ppm O2). The monoclinic-to-tetragonal phase transformation was observed via HTXRD at ~70 °C with the typical ~10 °C hysteresis (i.e. approached from above or below the transition).
