B₂Mo₃ is a molybdenum-based intermetallic compound belonging to the boride family, characterized by a dense crystal structure and high stiffness. This material is primarily of research and developmental interest rather than established commercial use, investigated for potential applications requiring exceptional hardness and thermal stability at elevated temperatures. Its appeal lies in the refractory and high-temperature structural applications where molybdenum borides offer advantages over conventional superalloys, though processing challenges and limited ductility have restricted widespread adoption.
