· UAu2

UAu2 is an intermetallic compound consisting of uranium and gold in a 1:2 atomic ratio, belonging to the class of uranium-based metallic compounds. This material exhibits significant density and elastic stiffness, making it relevant for specialized applications where high mass density and structural rigidity are simultaneously required. As an uranium-containing intermetallic, UAu2 is primarily of research and development interest rather than established commercial use, with potential applications in advanced nuclear fuel systems, high-density shielding materials, or specialized aerospace components where its unique property combination offers advantages over conventional alternatives.

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.
