Hf2Ni21B6

Hf2Ni21B6 is an experimental intermetallic compound combining hafnium, nickel, and boron, belonging to the family of refractory metal-based intermetallics. This material is primarily of research interest for high-temperature structural applications where extreme thermal stability and strength are needed, though it remains largely in the development phase rather than widespread industrial use. The hafnium-nickel-boron system is investigated for potential aerospace and power generation applications where conventional superalloys reach their thermal limits.
