· JVASP-94118· Mg6CdCo

Mg6CdCo is a magnesium-based intermetallic compound containing cadmium and cobalt additions, representing an experimental alloy system rather than a commercially established material. Research into this composition focuses on enhancing magnesium's inherent limitations—particularly its poor room-temperature ductility and creep resistance—through controlled intermetallic phases, making it of interest in lightweight structural applications where performance above ambient temperatures is required. The cadmium and cobalt alloying strategy aims to strengthen the magnesium matrix while managing density, positioning this material family within the broader context of advanced lightweight alloys for aerospace and automotive engineering.

Export Control

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.
