Powders of the vanadium oxides V{sub 2}O{sub 4}, V{sub 6}O{sub 13}, and V{sub 2}O{sub 5} were produced by thermal decomposition of aqueous solutions of vanadyl sulfate hydrate in atmospheres of N{sub 2}, H{sub 2} mixed with N{sub 2}, or air. The composition of the oxide powder was determined by the reactor temperature and gas composition. Residual sulfur concentrations in powders produced by decomposition at 740 C were less than 1 at.%, and these powders consisted of hollow, roughly spherical aggregates of particles less than 1 {micro}m in diameter.
