Gold carbide (AuC) is an intermetallic compound combining gold with carbon, belonging to the family of refractory metal carbides. This material is primarily of research and specialized industrial interest rather than a commodity engineering material, valued for its extreme hardness and chemical inertness in applications requiring both wear resistance and corrosion immunity.
