GdSi2 is an intermetallic ceramic compound combining gadolinium and silicon, belonging to the hexaboride/silicide family of refractory ceramics. This material is primarily of research and specialized industrial interest for high-temperature applications where thermal stability and chemical resistance are critical, particularly in nuclear, aerospace, and advanced thermal management systems where rare-earth silicides offer advantages over conventional refractories.
