BMo2 is a binary intermetallic compound composed of boron and molybdenum, belonging to the refractory metal boride family. This material is primarily of research and specialized industrial interest, valued for applications requiring high hardness, oxidation resistance, and thermal stability at elevated temperatures. It is used in cutting tools, wear-resistant coatings, and high-temperature structural applications where conventional alloys would fail, though it remains less common than established alternatives like tungsten carbide or titanium diboride due to brittleness and processing challenges.
