Y₁Co₃B₂ is an intermetallic compound belonging to the yttrium-cobalt-boron system, combining rare-earth, transition-metal, and light-element constituents into a crystalline phase. This material is primarily of research interest rather than established production use, investigated for its potential in hard-material and magnetic applications due to the combination of cobalt and boron, which are known strengthening and hardening elements. The yttrium addition modifies phase stability and potentially enables high-temperature performance relevant to advanced aerospace and wear-resistant applications.
