Hf2Zn is an intermetallic ceramic compound combining hafnium and zinc, belonging to the class of binary metal-ceramic composites. This material is primarily of research interest for high-temperature structural applications where the combination of hafnium's refractory properties and zinc's alloying effects may offer advantages in stiffness and thermal stability. While not yet widely commercialized, hafnium-zinc intermetallics are investigated for aerospace and extreme-environment engineering where conventional ceramics or superalloys reach performance limits.
