LiAl3 is an intermetallic compound combining lithium and aluminum, belonging to the family of lightweight metallic intermetallics. This material is primarily of research and development interest rather than a mainstream engineering alloy, valued for its extremely low density combined with moderate stiffness, making it attractive for weight-critical aerospace and automotive applications where conventional aluminum alloys or titanium would be too heavy.
