AlRu is an intermetallic compound combining aluminum and ruthenium, belonging to the family of high-performance metallic alloys designed for extreme-temperature and high-strength applications. While not widely established in conventional commercial production, AlRu and related Al-Ru compounds are primarily of research and development interest for aerospace and high-temperature structural applications where the combination of light weight (aluminum-based) and ruthenium's exceptional hardness and corrosion resistance offers potential advantages. Engineers would consider this material in experimental contexts where a balance of thermal stability, oxidation resistance, and mechanical rigidity is critical, though material availability, processing complexity, and cost typically limit current adoption to specialized aerospace research and advanced defense programs.
