UFeCo
metal· JVASP-101681· UFeCo
UFeCo is a uranium-iron-cobalt ternary alloy that combines the density and nuclear properties of uranium with the ferromagnetic and hardening contributions of iron and cobalt. This material belongs to the family of uranium-based metallic compounds historically developed for specialized applications where high density, magnetic response, and radiation performance are simultaneously required. UFeCo is found primarily in nuclear applications, radiation shielding, and defense-related systems where its unique combination of mass per unit volume and material properties provide 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.
