· Nb1 V1 O4

Nb₁V₁O₄ is a mixed-metal oxide semiconductor compound combining niobium and vanadium in a 1:1 stoichiometry. This material belongs to the family of transition-metal oxides and is primarily studied in research contexts for photocatalytic and electrochemical applications, where its semiconductor properties and mixed-valence character enable catalytic activity under visible light or electrochemical bias. While not yet widely deployed in commercial products at scale, NbVO₄ and related niobium-vanadium oxide compounds show promise as alternatives to conventional photocatalysts like TiO₂ because of their narrow bandgap and enhanced charge separation, making them candidates for environmental remediation and energy conversion applications as research matures.

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.
