· JVASP-94911· CaNi5H

CaNi5H is a metal hydride compound belonging to the calcium-nickel intermetallic family, formed through hydrogen absorption into the CaNi5 base alloy. This material is primarily of research and development interest for hydrogen storage and energy applications, where it serves as a potential solid-state hydrogen carrier with reversible absorption-desorption cycling capability. Its relevance lies in emerging clean energy technologies where safe, compact hydrogen containment is critical, offering advantages over gaseous or liquid hydrogen systems for stationary and potentially mobile storage.

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.
