Pt2W is an intermetallic compound combining platinum and tungsten in a 2:1 atomic ratio, forming a hard, dense metallic phase. This material belongs to the platinum-group refractory metal family and is primarily investigated for high-temperature structural applications where extreme hardness, chemical inertness, and resistance to oxidation are critical. Industrial adoption remains limited, with use concentrated in specialized aerospace, catalysis, and wear-resistant coating research rather than mainstream engineering applications.
