Ni₂Ce₂ is an intermetallic compound composed of nickel and cerium, belonging to the rare-earth metal family of advanced materials. This compound is primarily investigated in research contexts for its potential in high-temperature applications and catalytic systems, leveraging cerium's oxygen-storage capabilities and nickel's thermal stability. The material represents an emerging research composition rather than an established commercial product, with development focused on exploiting rare-earth–transition-metal synergies for energy conversion, emissions control, and specialized coating applications.
