Lu8B16C8 is a rare-earth boron carbide ceramic compound combining lutetium, boron, and carbon phases. This material belongs to the family of advanced ceramic composites and appears to be primarily a research composition rather than an established commercial product; such rare-earth boron carbide systems are studied for their potential in high-temperature structural applications and neutron absorption due to the boron content and the dense atomic packing of rare-earth elements.
