Sc₄V₂B₄Ir₁₀ is a complex multi-element intermetallic compound combining scandium, vanadium, boron, and iridium. This is a research-phase material rather than an established commercial alloy; such high-entropy intermetallic compositions are typically explored for extreme-environment applications where conventional superalloys reach their limits. The material's appeal lies in its potential to combine the high-temperature strength of iridium-based systems with the lightweight benefit of scandium and the hardening effects of vanadium and boron, though commercial viability and scalability remain unproven.
