Al8Fe5
metal· JVASP-144580· Al8Fe5
Al8Fe5 is an intermetallic compound in the aluminum-iron system, representing a brittle, hard phase that forms at specific compositional ratios. This material is primarily of research and development interest rather than a widely commercialized engineering alloy, as it exhibits the characteristic brittleness typical of aluminum-iron intermetallics. When incorporated as a reinforcing phase in aluminum matrix composites or cast aluminum alloys, Al8Fe5 can improve hardness and wear resistance, though its low ductility limits its use in load-bearing structural applications requiring toughness.

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
