· JVASP-93250· Ni4N

Ni₄N is a nickel nitride intermetallic compound that combines nickel with nitrogen to form a hard, dense metallic phase. This material belongs to the transition metal nitride family and is primarily studied in research contexts for wear resistance, corrosion protection, and hardening applications where extreme surface durability is required. It is used or considered in specialized coatings, tool materials, and high-performance surface engineering, where its hardness and chemical stability offer advantages over conventional nickel alloys and stainless steels.

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.
