· JVASP-110745· AlCd3

AlCd3 is an aluminum-cadmium intermetallic compound representing a specific phase in the Al-Cd binary alloy system. This material belongs to the family of aluminum-based intermetallics and is primarily of research and specialized industrial interest rather than a commodity engineering alloy. AlCd3 finds niche applications in cadmium-based bearing materials, electrical contacts, and specialty aerospace components where the unique combination of aluminum's lightweight character with cadmium's bearing and electrical properties offers advantages, though its use is increasingly restricted in many regions due to cadmium's toxicity and environmental regulations.

Export Control

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.
