Vanadium octoate is manufactured as a viscous, dark green liquid at a vanadium concentration of 3 wt%. Vanadium octoate is typically used as primary drier for stoving finishes (coatings that require high temperature curing). Vanadium octoate is used as a replacement for the discontinued vanadium naphthenate. Vanadium(III) AcAc is manufactured as the pure, crystalline compound – V(C5H7O2)3. Vanadium(III) AcAc is used a catalyst pre-cursor for Ziegler-type polymerization in the manufacture of EPDM rubber. Vanadium(III) AcAc is typically shipped as a mineral oil dispersion to reduce the potential for vanadium oxidation by air.
