MnB is a manganese boride intermetallic compound that forms a hard ceramic-like phase used primarily in wear-resistant and high-temperature applications. It appears in cutting tool coatings, wear-resistant composites, and specialized alloy systems where hardness and thermal stability are required. Engineers select manganese boride when superior hardness and chemical resistance are needed in extreme environments, though its brittleness and processing complexity make it suitable mainly for coatings or reinforcement phases rather than bulk structural components.
