· CaAlOFN

CaAlOFN is an oxynitride ceramic compound containing calcium, aluminum, oxygen, and nitrogen elements, belonging to the family of advanced non-oxide ceramics. This material is primarily of research interest for high-temperature structural applications and optical devices, where the incorporation of nitrogen into the ceramic lattice can enhance hardness, thermal stability, and mechanical properties compared to conventional oxide ceramics. The oxynitride class is valued for applications requiring improved wear resistance and thermal shock tolerance, though CaAlOFN specifically remains an emerging material with development focused on refining synthesis routes and characterizing performance for niche engineering domains.

Regulatory Screening

Environmental

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.
