LaCo₂B₂ is an intermetallic compound combining lanthanum, cobalt, and boron—a member of the rare-earth transition-metal boride family. This material is primarily investigated in research contexts for applications requiring high hardness and thermal stability, particularly in wear-resistant coatings and high-temperature structural applications where conventional alloys fall short.
