Product Information

• Name: Vanadium(IV) sulfate oxide hydrate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Vanadium oxide hydrate is an oxidizing catalyst that is used in the production of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It is also used as a catalyst in the oxidation of water vapor and in the preparation of hydroxide solutions. The catalytic activity of vanadium oxide hydrate depends on its pH, with a lower pH increasing the rate of oxidation. This compound was shown to induce DNA strand breaks and chromosomal aberrations when tested in vitro. Vanadium oxide hydrate has also been found to have genotoxic effects when tested in vivo, including induction of micronuclei and sister chromatid exchanges. Vanadium oxide hydrate can be used as a dietary supplement to increase growth factor levels, particularly when combined with molybdenum or monoclonal antibody. Vanadium oxide hydrate has a phase transition temperature at around 74°C, which makes it useful for regulating polymer film thickness during processing.
