· JVASP-92567· InCo3N

InCo3N is a transition metal nitride compound combining indium and cobalt, belonging to the family of hard ceramic-metal hybrids that exhibit metallic conductivity alongside ceramic hardness and wear resistance. While primarily investigated in research settings, InCo3N and related ternary nitrides are explored for applications requiring high hardness, thermal stability, and chemical resistance—particularly in cutting tools, wear-resistant coatings, and high-temperature structural components where conventional alloys fall short. Its appeal lies in combining the toughness typical of metallic systems with the extreme hardness of ceramic nitrides, making it a candidate material for next-generation tool and protective coating applications.

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.
