metal· JVASP-56461· Ca3Al2N4
Calcium aluminum nitride (Ca₃Al₂N₄) is a ceramic compound belonging to the ternary nitride family, combining metallic elements with nitrogen to create a hard, refractory material. This material is primarily investigated in research contexts for high-temperature structural applications and advanced ceramics, where its thermal stability and hardness make it a candidate alternative to traditional alumina or silicon nitride in demanding environments. Its development is motivated by potential use in extreme-temperature applications and as a precursor phase in nitride-based composite systems.
