HoW3
metal· JVASP-127650· HoW3
HoW₃ is an intermetallic compound combining holmium and tungsten, belonging to the rare-earth transition metal family. This material exhibits extremely high density and is primarily explored in research contexts for applications requiring heavy, refractory, or specialized electronic properties inherent to rare-earth tungsten systems. Industrial adoption remains limited; engineers would consider it where conventional tungsten alloys or refractory metals prove insufficient, or where rare-earth dopants offer specific functional benefits such as enhanced thermal stability, neutron absorption, or electronic performance.

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.
