UCo4B
metal· JVASP-144795· UCo4B
UCo4B is a uranium-cobalt boride intermetallic compound that belongs to the family of hard, dense metallic materials used primarily in specialized nuclear and defense applications. This material is notable for its high density and hardening characteristics, making it relevant for radiation-shielding components and specialized military applications where density and hardness are critical performance drivers. UCo4B represents a research-oriented composition within the uranium-based metallurgy space; engineers considering this material should verify availability and regulatory compliance, as uranium-containing alloys are subject to strict controls.

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.
