AsIrW2 is a ternary intermetallic compound combining arsenic, iridium, and tungsten—a research-phase material within the refractory metal alloy family. While not yet established in production engineering, this composition combines the extreme hardness and oxidation resistance of tungsten and iridium with arsenic's modifying effects, making it a candidate for high-temperature structural applications where conventional superalloys fall short. The material remains largely experimental; potential advantages over nickel-based superalloys or tungsten-rhenium systems would center on thermal stability, wear resistance, or specialized high-temperature environments, though practical manufacturing and cost barriers have limited industrial adoption.
