ZrBeB

ZrBeB is an experimental intermetallic compound combining zirconium, beryllium, and boron, belonging to the family of refractory metal borides and beryllides. This material class is of research interest for extreme-environment applications where conventional alloys fail, particularly in aerospace and high-temperature structural applications. The zirconium-beryllium-boron system represents a strategy to combine the high-temperature stability of borides with the lightweight advantage of beryllium, though such compounds remain largely in development phase with limited commercial deployment.
