· JVASP-106248· Ho2AlCd

Ho₂AlCd is an intermetallic compound combining holmium (a rare-earth element), aluminum, and cadmium in a defined stoichiometric ratio. This material belongs to the family of rare-earth intermetallics, which are typically synthesized for research purposes to explore novel magnetic, electronic, or mechanical properties rather than for widespread commercial production. Ho₂AlCd and related rare-earth aluminum compounds are investigated primarily in materials science research for potential applications in specialized magnetic devices, magnetocaloric cooling systems, and high-performance structural alloys, though limited industrial adoption exists outside academic and laboratory settings.

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.
