Er79Ni171 is an intermetallic compound in the erbium-nickel binary system, representing a rare-earth metal alloy with a fixed stoichiometric composition. This material exists primarily in the research and materials science literature as a phase-stable compound rather than a commercial engineering alloy, making it relevant for studies of rare-earth metallurgy, phase diagrams, and high-temperature intermetallic behavior. The erbium-nickel system is explored for potential applications in specialized high-temperature or magnetic applications, though Er79Ni171 itself has limited established industrial use compared to more common rare-earth alloys.
