· JVASP-101106· TaVC2

TaVC2 is a tantalum-vanadium carbide composite or intermetallic compound belonging to the family of refractory metal carbides. This material combines the hardness and wear resistance of carbide phases with the toughness contributions of tantalum and vanadium, making it of interest for high-temperature and abrasive-duty applications. While primarily explored in research and specialized industrial contexts, tantalum-vanadium carbides are investigated as candidates for cutting tools, wear-resistant coatings, and high-temperature structural applications where conventional hardmetals reach their limits.

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.
