· JVASP-103329· Y2AlCd

Y2AlCd is an intermetallic compound composed of yttrium, aluminum, and cadmium, belonging to the rare-earth intermetallic family. This material is primarily of research and development interest rather than established commercial use, with potential applications in lightweight structural applications and specialized alloys where rare-earth strengthening effects are desired. The combination of yttrium's strength-enhancing properties with aluminum's low density makes this compound a candidate for high-performance aerospace or defense material studies, though cadmium's toxicity and environmental restrictions limit broader industrial adoption.

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.
