· JVASP-18090· UCo2Si2

UCo₂Si₂ is an intermetallic compound in the uranium-cobalt-silicon system, representing a rare-earth-like metallic phase with a defined crystallographic structure. This material is primarily a research compound of interest in materials science and solid-state physics rather than an established commercial alloy, studied for its electronic, magnetic, and mechanical properties within the broader class of ternary intermetallics. Industrial applications remain limited, but such uranium-based intermetallics are investigated for potential use in specialized high-temperature or radiation environments where conventional alloys would fail, as well as in fundamental studies of strongly correlated electron systems.

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.
