Co21Re2B6 is a cobalt-rhenium boride intermetallic compound belonging to the family of refractory metal borides. This is a research-stage material explored primarily for its potential high-temperature strength and hardness characteristics, combining cobalt's established use in superalloys with rhenium's exceptional refractory properties and boron's hardening effects. Industrial deployment remains limited; the material is of interest to researchers investigating advanced wear-resistant coatings, high-temperature structural applications, and tool materials where conventional superalloys or ceramic composites may be insufficient.
