NiSb is an intermetallic compound composed of nickel and antimony, belonging to the family of binary metal-metalloid phases. While not a commodity material, NiSb has attracted research interest as a thermoelectric compound and semiconductor material, particularly for applications requiring conversion between thermal and electrical energy. The compound is notable within materials science for its potential in mid-temperature thermoelectric devices and as a model system for studying electronic transport in intermetallic systems, though industrial adoption remains limited compared to more established thermoelectric alloys.
