· JVASP-132825· ScAl6Fe6

ScAl₆Fe₆ is an intermetallic compound combining scandium, aluminum, and iron in a fixed stoichiometric ratio, belonging to the family of lightweight metallic compounds with potential for high-strength applications. This material is primarily of research interest rather than established industrial production, investigated for aerospace and structural applications where weight reduction combined with elevated-temperature stability is valuable. The scandium additions to aluminum-iron systems are known to refine grain structure and improve mechanical properties, making this compound potentially attractive for advanced structural alloys, though practical adoption depends on cost-effectiveness and manufacturing scalability.

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.
