Abstract

The SiO2–V2O5 system is one of the key systems for vanadium extraction and applications of vanadium oxides in the ceramic industries. However, only limited data in this system and contradictive results were reported from preceding studies. In the present study, high-temperature phase equilibrium experiments were conducted to construct the phase diagram of SiO2–V2O5 system at temperature range of 660–1100 °C. Electron probe X-ray micro-analyzer (EPMA) was used to analyze the microstructure and composition of the phases presented in quenched samples. The liquidus temperatures in both SiO2 and V2O5 primary phase field were determined. The eutectic temperature is confirmed to be within 670–680 °C and the eutectic composition comprises 1.9 wt% SiO2. SiO2 phase contains up to 1.4 wt% V2O5 in the temperature range investigated.
