VB2Ru is a refractory metal compound combining vanadium diboride with ruthenium, belonging to the family of transition metal borides. This material is primarily of research and development interest rather than established industrial production, with potential applications in extreme-temperature environments and hard-material coatings where superior wear resistance and thermal stability are required. The ruthenium addition to the vanadium boride matrix is investigated for enhancing toughness and oxidation resistance compared to conventional ceramic borides, making it relevant for advanced aerospace, cutting tool, and thermal protection applications.
