Ce5Zr3O16 is a mixed rare-earth oxide ceramic combining cerium and zirconium in a complex crystal structure, belonging to the family of rare-earth zirconate ceramics. This material is primarily explored in research and advanced applications requiring thermal stability, chemical inertness, and radiation resistance, with particular interest in nuclear waste immobilization, high-temperature thermal barrier coatings, and solid electrolytes for fuel cells. Its combination of cerium's redox properties and zirconium's refractory character makes it notable for extreme-environment applications where conventional ceramics would degrade.
