ThSiIr is an intermetallic ceramic compound combining thorium, silicon, and iridium—a research-phase material belonging to the family of high-entropy and refractory intermetallics. These materials are being investigated for extreme-temperature applications where conventional superalloys and ceramics reach their limits, particularly in aerospace and nuclear contexts where oxidation resistance, thermal stability, and mechanical retention at elevated temperatures are critical.
