An aluminide is a compound that has aluminium with more electropositive elements. Since aluminium is near the nonmetals on the periodic table, it can bond with metals differently than other metals. The properties of an aluminide would be intermediate between a metal alloy and an ionic compound.

- magnesium aluminide, MgAl
- titanium aluminide, TiAl
