· JVASP-112359· LaNi5H6

LaNi5H6 is a metal hydride compound composed of lanthanum and nickel that absorbs and stores hydrogen within its crystal structure. This intermetallic hydride is primarily investigated for hydrogen storage and energy applications, where it serves as a promising candidate material for safe, reversible hydrogen absorption at moderate temperatures and pressures. Its ability to store hydrogen while remaining stable makes it notable compared to conventional gas storage methods, though it remains largely in research and early commercialization phases for fuel cell systems and portable energy storage.

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.
