SmNi₂ is an intermetallic compound formed between samarium (a rare-earth element) and nickel, belonging to the family of rare-earth intermetallics. This material exhibits strong magnetocrystalline anisotropy and is primarily investigated for permanent magnet and magnetostrictive applications where controlled magnetic properties are critical. SmNi₂ is largely a research-phase material used in specialized magnetic device development and competing against more established rare-earth compounds like SmCo₅ in niche high-performance applications.
