· JVASP-106105· CeUN2

CeUN2 is a ceramic compound combining cerium, uranium, and nitrogen—a mixed actinide-lanthanide nitride belonging to the family of high-density ceramic materials studied primarily for nuclear and advanced materials applications. This compound is largely experimental, investigated in research contexts for potential use in nuclear fuel forms, radiation shielding, or high-temperature structural applications where extreme chemical stability and density are required. Its selection would typically be driven by specialized nuclear engineering, materials research, or defense applications where conventional ceramics are inadequate.

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.
