· JVASP-106286· LaNi3B

LaNi₃B is an intermetallic compound combining lanthanum, nickel, and boron, belonging to the rare-earth metal family used primarily in hydrogen storage and energy conversion applications. This material is notable in hydrogen economy research for its ability to absorb and release hydrogen reversibly, making it a candidate for fuel cell systems and thermal energy storage. While largely in the research and development phase rather than widespread commercial production, LaNi₃B represents the broader class of rare-earth intermetallics being investigated as alternatives to conventional hydride storage materials due to their favorable hydrogen uptake kinetics.

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.
