· JVASP-99501· ThUC2

ThUC2 is a thorium-based uranium carbide ceramic compound belonging to the refractory carbide family, designed for extreme-temperature applications requiring high hardness and chemical stability. This material is primarily investigated in nuclear fuel and advanced reactor research contexts, where its high density and thermal properties make it a candidate for next-generation nuclear fuel forms and high-temperature structural applications where traditional oxide fuels or metals would fail.

Regulatory Screening

Environmental

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.
