IrWON₂ is an experimental ceramic compound containing iridium, tungsten, oxygen, and nitrogen, representing a refractory ceramic in the transitional metal oxynitride family. This material is primarily of research interest for extreme-temperature and wear-resistant applications, where the combination of a precious refractory metal (iridium) with tungsten and nitrogen is expected to provide enhanced hardness, oxidation resistance, and thermal stability compared to conventional oxides or nitrides alone.
