· JVASP-16287· ThSe

Thorium selenide (ThSe) is an ionic ceramic compound belonging to the rock salt structure family, composed of thorium and selenium elements. While primarily a research and development material rather than a mainstream industrial ceramic, ThSe is investigated for nuclear fuel applications, high-temperature material systems, and fundamental studies of actinide compounds due to its thermal stability and dense crystal structure. Its potential value lies in specialized nuclear engineering contexts and as a model compound for understanding actinide ceramics, though commercial adoption remains limited compared to conventional ceramics like alumina or yttria-stabilized zirconia.
