· JVASP-127030· UCu3

UCu3 is an intermetallic compound combining uranium and copper in a fixed stoichiometric ratio, belonging to the class of uranium-based metallic compounds. This material is primarily encountered in nuclear metallurgy research and specialized defense applications where uranium's neutron properties and high density are leveraged, though its use is restricted to government and licensed nuclear facilities due to regulatory constraints. UCu3 represents a research-phase intermetallic rather than a commodity engineering material, with interest driven by its potential in nuclear fuel matrix design and radiation shielding studies.

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.
