Au4V is a gold-vanadium alloy combining noble metal properties with vanadium's strength and corrosion resistance. This material is primarily explored in biomedical and aerospace research contexts, where its biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and potential for high-strength applications make it attractive compared to conventional titanium alloys or pure gold in demanding environments. Au4V represents an emerging alloy system for specialized applications where gold's biological inertness must be combined with structural performance.
