Boron hydride (BH) is a ceramic compound combining boron and hydrogen elements, representing a lightweight inorganic material with potential applications in advanced structural and functional ceramic systems. This material family is primarily of research and developmental interest, explored for aerospace, thermal management, and high-energy applications where low density combined with ceramic properties offers advantages over conventional materials. BH ceramics are notable for their potential in weight-critical applications and as precursors or reinforcement phases in composite systems, though commercial availability and maturity remain limited compared to established ceramic alternatives.
