Vanadium Gallide (V3Ga)-Powder

Vanadium Gallide (V3Ga)-Powder introduce:

Characteristic




Vanadium–gallium (V3Ga) is a superconducting alloy of vanadium and gallium. It is often used for the high field insert coils of superconducting electromagnets.




Vanadium–gallium tape is used in the highest field magnets (magnetic fields of 17.5 teslas). The structure of the superconducting A15 phase of V3Ga is similar to that of the more common Nb3Sn and Nb3Ti.




Chemical formula：V3Ga

Molar mass：222.55 g/mol

Appearance:Silver- gray powder

Melting point:1720°C




Application




The main property of V3Ga that makes it so useful is that it can be used in magnetic fields up to about 18 Tesla, while Nb3Sn can only be used in fields up to about 15 Tesla.

The high field characteristics can be improved by doping with high-Z elements such as Nb, Ta, Sn, Pt and Pb
