ArNb is a metal alloy combining argon and niobium; however, this composition is unconventional and likely represents either a research-phase material, a specialized coating, or a data entry requiring clarification, as stable Ar–Nb phases are not established in mainstream engineering metallurgy. If this material exists as a functional intermetallic or ion-implanted surface layer, it would belong to the refractory metal family, where niobium-based alloys are valued for extreme-temperature and corrosion-resistant applications. Engineers considering this material should verify its actual phase composition and processing route, as its properties and availability would depend critically on synthesis method and whether it exists as a bulk alloy, thin film, or composite constituent.
