HoVB4 is a refractory intermetallic compound combining holmium, vanadium, and boron, belonging to the metal boride family. This material is primarily of research interest for high-temperature structural applications where exceptional hardness and thermal stability are required. While not yet widely commercialized, holmium-based borides are investigated for potential use in extreme-environment aerospace and energy systems where conventional superalloys reach their limits.
