Ce₃Zn₁ is an intermetallic ceramic compound combining cerium and zinc in a 3:1 stoichiometric ratio. This is a research-phase material studied primarily for its potential in high-temperature structural applications and functional ceramics, though it remains largely experimental without established commercial production routes. The cerium-zinc system is of interest in materials science for understanding rare-earth intermetallic behavior and potential applications in thermal management, catalysis, or specialized refractory contexts where the unique electronic and thermal properties of rare-earth compounds could be leveraged.
