· NaHg

Sodium-mercury (NaHg) is an intermetallic compound classified as a ceramic material, representing a sodium-mercury amalgam or intermetallic phase. This compound is primarily of research and theoretical interest rather than a widely deployed engineering material, studied within the context of alkali-metal–mercury systems and their phase equilibria. NaHg appears in specialized applications involving liquid metal chemistry, such as in experimental sodium-mercury cells, heat transfer media research, or as a model system for understanding intermetallic phase behavior and bonding in extreme conditions.

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.
