VANADIUM BORIDE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Metal borides can be used to generate batteries or fuel cells, serving as an alternative energy source to petroleum resources. Electrochemical energy storage technology using the multi-electron oxidation of metal borides, such as vanadium boride, holds promise as a replacement for existing batteries based on single-electron charge storage. Multi-electron oxidation of vanadium boride anodes coupled to carbon-air cathodes provides superior electrochemical energy storage capacity due to its multi-electron charge storage capability.

Chemical Properties

refractory material; used as a 99.5% pure sputtering target to produce wear-resistant and semiconductive films [KIR78] [CER91]

Physical properties

Wear-resistant and semiconductive films.
