· JVASP-128256· LaTa

LaTa is a ceramic compound composed of lanthanum and tantalum, belonging to the family of refractory oxides and mixed metal ceramics. This material is primarily of research interest for high-temperature and extreme-environment applications, where its combination of a heavy metal element (tantalum) with a rare-earth element (lanthanum) offers potential for enhanced thermal stability, chemical inertness, and resistance to oxidation. Engineers consider LaTa-based ceramics for niche applications requiring materials that remain stable in harsh conditions where traditional oxides may degrade or react.

Regulatory Screening

Environmental

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.
