Mg2Ti6 is an intermetallic compound combining magnesium and titanium, belonging to the class of metallic semiconductors or semi-metallic intermetallics. This material exists primarily as a research compound rather than a commercial product, studied for its potential in lightweight structural applications where the low density of magnesium is combined with titanium's strength and thermal stability. Interest in this composition centers on aerospace and automotive contexts where multiphase magnesium-titanium systems are explored for weight reduction, though practical engineering adoption remains limited due to processing challenges and the availability of more established titanium alloys and magnesium alloys.
