· JVASP-93421· UCu5

UCu5 is an intermetallic compound combining uranium and copper in a 1:5 atomic ratio, belonging to the family of uranium-based metallic compounds. This material is primarily of research and specialized industrial interest, valued for applications requiring high density and specific thermal or chemical properties inherent to uranium metallurgy. Its use is confined to nuclear fuel cycle applications, radiological shielding, and advanced materials research where uranium's unique nuclear and physical properties are deliberately exploited.

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.
