Aluminide

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

An aluminide is a compound that has aluminium with other elements.[1] Since aluminium is near the nonmetals on the periodic table, it can bond with metals differently than other metals. The properties of an aluminide are between those of a metal alloy and those of an ionic compound. Aluminides are used as bond coats in thermal barrier coating systems.[2]
