· JVASP-91520· LaAlH6

LaAlH6 is a complex metal hydride compound containing lanthanum, aluminum, and hydrogen, belonging to the family of rare-earth aluminum hydrides. This material is primarily of research interest for hydrogen storage applications, as it can release hydrogen at moderate temperatures and pressures—a property critical for next-generation energy storage and fuel cell systems. While not yet widely deployed in production, LaAlH6 represents a promising candidate in the metal hydride family for reversible hydrogen absorption and desorption cycles, offering potential advantages over conventional hydride storage materials in automotive and stationary power applications.

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.
