· JVASP-131464· CaB11

CaB11 is a calcium boride ceramic compound belonging to the boron-rich ceramic family, characterized by strong covalent bonding and high hardness. This material is primarily investigated in research contexts for applications requiring exceptional wear resistance, thermal stability, and chemical inertness, with potential use in advanced abrasive applications, high-temperature structural components, and neutron shielding—though industrial adoption remains limited compared to established ceramics like alumina or silicon carbide.

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.
