ZrNi₂Sb is an intermetallic compound in the zirconium-nickel-antimony system, representing a ternary metal alloy with a defined crystal structure. This material is primarily of research and development interest for thermoelectric applications, where the combination of metallic bonding and semiconducting behavior in intermetallic phases offers potential for solid-state energy conversion. ZrNi₂Sb and related half-Heusler compounds are investigated for waste heat recovery and power generation systems where conventional materials face limitations, though the material remains largely in the experimental phase rather than widespread industrial production.
