Indium monochloride (InCl) is an intermetallic ceramic compound combining indium and chlorine, typically studied in materials science research rather than as an established commercial ceramic. While InCl itself is not widely deployed in industrial applications, it belongs to the family of III-V semiconductor and intermetallic chlorides that are investigated for optoelectronic properties, solid-state chemistry, and as precursors in thin-film deposition processes. The material's potential relevance lies in emerging applications such as semiconductor device fabrication, photonic materials research, or high-temperature ceramic systems where its specific elastic and density characteristics may offer advantages in niche engineering contexts.
