Ba8Au6.10Si38.97
metal· Ba8Au6.10Si38.97
Ba8Au6.10Si38.97 is an intermetallic compound belonging to the barium-gold-silicon system, likely a clathrate or related cage-structured phase. This is a research-stage material developed to explore thermal and electronic properties in complex intermetallic systems, rather than an established commercial alloy. The barium-gold-silicon family is of interest for thermoelectric and low-thermal-conductivity applications where phonon scattering in complex crystal structures can be leveraged; such materials are typically investigated for waste heat recovery and thermal insulation in specialized aerospace or power-generation contexts.

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.
