B2P is a boron phosphide ceramic compound that belongs to the III-V ceramic family, offering a combination of hardness, thermal stability, and refractory properties typical of intermetallic ceramics. This material is of particular interest in research and specialized industrial applications where extreme hardness, thermal shock resistance, and chemical inertness are critical, such as in semiconductor device fabrication, abrasive applications, and high-temperature structural components. Engineers consider B2P when conventional oxides or carbides prove insufficient for demanding thermal or chemical environments, or when the unique properties of non-oxide ceramics provide clear performance advantages over traditional alternatives.
