· JVASP-102116· Mg5Sc

Mg5Sc is an intermetallic compound combining magnesium and scandium, belonging to the ceramic/intermetallic class of materials. This compound is primarily of research and development interest rather than established commercial use, explored for applications where lightweight, high-temperature stability, and thermal management properties are valued. The magnesium-scandium system is investigated in aerospace and advanced manufacturing contexts as a potential strengthening phase or constituent in composite structures, though practical adoption remains limited due to cost and processing complexity.

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.
