PmCu
metal· JVASP-156744· PmCu
PmCu is a copper-based alloy containing promethium, representing a specialized metal system developed for research and niche industrial applications. This material combines copper's excellent thermal and electrical conductivity with promethium's radioactive properties, making it relevant for applications requiring both electronic performance and radioisotope functionality. The alloy is primarily explored in nuclear instrumentation, radiation sources, and specialized medical or scientific devices where the combination of copper's metallurgical properties and promethium's beta-emitting characteristics provides engineered functionality unavailable in conventional copper alloys.

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.
