Raw Material for Vanadium Sulfide Production
According to the Vanadium Sulfide (nanosheet) production plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Vanadium Sulfide include Sodium Orthovanadate-Thioacetamide.
- By Hydrothermal Method: The production process of vanadium sulfide (nanosheets- as Vanadium sulfide is not commonly made in bulk contrary to the common chemicals) involves a hydrothermal method. In this process, sodium orthovanadate and thioacetamide are dissolved in deionized water and stirred to form a homogeneous solution. This solution is transferred into a Teflon-lined stainless-steel autoclave and subjected to heating at elevated temperatures for several hours. After the reaction, the autoclave is cooled, and the product is washed with ethyl alcohol and water. Finally, the product is dried to get pure vanadium sulfide as the final product.
