· Y2O3

Yttria (Y₂O₃) is a ceramic oxide compound and rare-earth material widely used as a high-performance refractory and optical ceramic. It is employed in thermal barrier coatings for aerospace turbines, solid-state laser hosts, optical windows for infrared applications, and as a stabilizing agent in zirconia-based ceramics for demanding thermal and chemical environments. Engineers select Y₂O₃ for its exceptional melting point, chemical inertness, and transparency in the infrared spectrum, making it irreplaceable in applications requiring thermal stability above 2000°C or specialized optical properties.

Regulatory Screening

Environmental

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.
