ZrNbB2 is a refractory metal boride compound combining zirconium, niobium, and boron—a ternary ceramic-metallic material designed for extreme-temperature and wear-resistant applications. This material family is primarily explored in research and specialized industrial contexts for its potential to maintain structural integrity and hardness at temperatures where conventional alloys degrade, making it of interest for aerospace, defense, and high-performance manufacturing environments. ZrNbB2 represents an emerging alternative to traditional refractory carbides and nitrides where enhanced toughness or specific thermal properties are beneficial.
