Vanadyl Sulfate, Hydrate is a blue solid and is the most common source of vanadium. Highly hygroscopic, it is mostly used to act as an intermediate in the separation of vanadium from petroleum residue. It can also replicate the effects of insulin and is a component of some drugs and food supplements.
Vanadium(IV) sulfate oxide hydrate is used as a catalyst for the oxidative aromatization of cyclohexenone. It is also used as a component in some food supplements. It is one of the intermediate during the extraction of vanadium from petroleum residues.
