· VScN3

VScN3 is a vanadium scandium nitride ceramic compound belonging to the transition metal nitride family, potentially engineered for high-hardness and refractory applications. This material is primarily of research interest for cutting tools, wear-resistant coatings, and high-temperature structural applications where conventional nitride ceramics may be insufficient. The addition of scandium to vanadium nitride is investigated to enhance hardness, thermal stability, and oxidation resistance compared to binary nitride systems, making it notable for extreme-environment engineering where material degradation is a limiting factor.

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.
