· JVASP-137808· MgB2N2

MgB₂N₂ is a ternary ceramic compound combining magnesium boride and nitride phases, representing an emerging material in the boron-nitride ceramic family. This compound is primarily investigated in research contexts for applications requiring high hardness and thermal stability, with potential use in cutting tools, wear-resistant coatings, and high-temperature structural applications where conventional ceramics may be insufficient. Its combination of boron and nitrogen bonding offers potential advantages in hardness and chemical inertness compared to single-phase alternatives, though commercial adoption remains limited pending further development and cost optimization.
