· Mg(BC)2

Mg(BC)2 is an experimental magnesium borocarbide ceramic compound combining magnesium with boron and carbon elements. This material belongs to the family of light-weight refractory ceramics and is primarily investigated in research settings for applications requiring high stiffness combined with low density. As a borocarbide system, it represents an emerging class of materials being explored for next-generation aerospace and defense applications, though industrial adoption remains limited and further development of processing and characterization methods is ongoing.
