NdHf is a ceramic intermetallic compound combining neodymium and hafnium, belonging to the rare-earth hafnide family of materials. While primarily a research-phase material, NdHf and related rare-earth hafnides are investigated for ultra-high-temperature structural applications where exceptional thermal stability and refractory properties are needed. The material is notable in the context of next-generation aerospace and hypersonic vehicle applications where conventional nickel-based superalloys reach their thermal limits.
