CaWN₃ is an experimental ternary ceramic compound combining calcium, tungsten, and nitrogen, belonging to the family of transition metal nitrides. While not yet commercialized at scale, materials in this class are investigated for applications requiring high hardness, thermal stability, and chemical resistance—properties typical of ceramic nitrides but with potential advantages from tungsten's density and refractory character. Engineers would consider such compounds for extreme-environment applications where conventional metals or single-phase ceramics fall short, though material availability, processing feasibility, and cost remain significant barriers to adoption.
