Ag₂Au₆ is a precious metal intermetallic compound composed of silver and gold in a 1:3 atomic ratio. This material belongs to the family of noble metal alloys and is primarily of research and specialized industrial interest rather than high-volume engineering use. Applications are concentrated in electronics, jewelry, and decorative coatings where the combination of noble metal properties—corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity, and aesthetic appeal—justifies the material cost, though it remains largely experimental for structural engineering applications.
