metal· JVASP-94150· Mg6CoSn
Mg6CoSn is an intermetallic compound combining magnesium, cobalt, and tin—a rare-earth-free alternative within the broader family of magnesium-based alloys and metal compounds. This material is primarily of research and developmental interest, investigated for applications requiring lightweight structural performance combined with enhanced strength or functional properties that pure magnesium or conventional Mg alloys cannot provide. The incorporation of cobalt and tin phases offers potential for improved thermal stability, hardness, and damping characteristics in specialized aerospace, automotive, and electronics applications where weight reduction is critical.

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.
