NdCo₂B₂ is an intermetallic compound combining neodymium, cobalt, and boron, belonging to the rare-earth transition-metal boride family. This material is primarily of research interest for hard magnetic and wear-resistant applications, leveraging the magnetic properties of neodymium and the hardening effect of boron in a cobalt matrix. While not yet established as a mainstream industrial material, compounds in this family show promise for high-performance magnetic devices and abrasive-resistant coatings where cost and processing complexity are secondary to performance requirements.
