Y2Mg6 is an intermetallic compound combining yttrium and magnesium, belonging to the rare-earth magnesium alloy family. This material is primarily investigated in research contexts for lightweight structural applications and energy storage systems, where the combination of low density with rare-earth strengthening offers potential advantages over conventional magnesium alloys, though commercial deployment remains limited compared to established Mg-Al or Mg-Zn systems.
