· JVASP-130655· Li8Au

Li8Au is an intermetallic compound composed of lithium and gold, belonging to the alkali metal–noble metal alloy family. This material is primarily of research and academic interest rather than established in widespread industrial production, with potential applications in advanced battery systems, electronic materials, and lightweight structural alloys where the high lithium content and metallic bonding characteristics could offer unique electrochemical or mechanical properties. Engineers would consider this material in specialized contexts where its specific combination of lithium reactivity and gold's chemical stability might enable novel functionality unavailable from conventional alloys.

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.
