Sc₁Ni₅ is an intermetallic compound combining scandium and nickel in a 1:5 atomic ratio, belonging to the family of transition metal intermetallics. This material is primarily of research interest rather than established in high-volume production, investigated for potential applications requiring lightweight structural performance and thermal properties enabled by scandium's low density and high melting point combined with nickel's corrosion resistance and strengthening effects.
