Mg6WC is an intermetallic compound combining magnesium with tungsten carbide, belonging to the family of lightweight metal-ceramic composites. This material is primarily of research interest for applications requiring the combination of magnesium's low density with tungsten carbide's hardness and wear resistance, though it remains largely experimental rather than established in high-volume industrial production.
