Ca₂PdAu is an intermetallic compound combining calcium, palladium, and gold in a 2:1:1 stoichiometric ratio. This is a research-stage material in the ternary intermetallic family, not yet in established industrial production. Intermetallics of this type are explored for specialized applications where controlled crystal structure and electronic properties are critical, particularly in thermoelectricity, catalysis, and high-temperature structural applications where conventional alloys fall short.
