Zr2Cu is an intermetallic compound combining zirconium and copper, belonging to the family of transition-metal intermetallics. This material is primarily of research and development interest rather than a widely commercialized alloy, studied for its potential in high-strength applications and as a constituent phase in zirconium-copper bulk metallic glass (BMG) systems. Engineers investigate Zr2Cu for its role in strengthening mechanisms and thermal stability in advanced metallic systems, particularly where improved stiffness and damping characteristics are valuable.
