Ir₃C is a ceramic intermetallic compound combining iridium and carbon, belonging to the family of refractory carbides. This material is primarily of research and specialized high-temperature interest rather than a widely commercialized engineering ceramic. Ir₃C is explored for extreme-environment applications requiring exceptional thermal stability and chemical resistance, particularly in aerospace and high-temperature catalytic contexts where traditional carbides may be inadequate.
