ZrBe is an intermetallic compound combining zirconium and beryllium, representing an experimental or specialized alloy system within the refractory metal family. This material is primarily of research interest for high-temperature structural applications where the combination of zirconium's thermal stability and beryllium's low density offers potential advantages, though commercial adoption remains limited due to beryllium's toxicity concerns and processing challenges.
