· JVASP-61306· LuNi4Au

LuNi₄Au is an intermetallic compound combining lutetium, nickel, and gold—a rare-earth transition metal alloy belonging to the Heusler or similar ordered intermetallic family. This material is primarily of research interest rather than established in high-volume engineering applications; it is studied for its potential magnetic, electronic, or catalytic properties that emerge from the specific crystal structure formed by these three elements. The addition of gold to nickel-rare-earth systems can modify magnetic coupling, electrical conductivity, and thermal stability compared to binary counterparts, making it relevant to exploratory work in functional materials and advanced 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.
