· JVASP-35532· Th2Fe2Si2C

Th2Fe2Si2C is an intermetallic compound containing thorium, iron, silicon, and carbon, belonging to the family of ternary and quaternary refractory metal carbides and silicides. This material is primarily of research interest rather than established commercial production, representing work in high-temperature structural intermetallics where thorium's nuclear properties and refractory characteristics are combined with iron-silicon-carbide phases to achieve extreme temperature stability and wear resistance. Engineers would consider this material class for applications demanding exceptional hardness and thermal stability in environments where conventional superalloys reach their limits, though thorium's radioactive nature and handling requirements significantly restrict practical deployment.

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.
