Beryllium Bonding

These are the two  beryllium bonds that I found 

BeCu:  Beryllium copper. Found in springs and other objects that must retain their shape after a period of stress and strain. There are safety concerns  about this alloy because it is slightly toxic as are all beryllium compounds.

BeO: Beryllium oxide or Beryllia. Beryllia is used in rocket engines and is used in high performance semiconductor parts, such as radio equipment because of its good thermal conductivity while also being a good electric insulator.
