CaAlAu is an intermetallic compound combining calcium, aluminum, and gold in a metallic matrix. This is a research-phase material studied primarily for its structural and electronic properties rather than established industrial production; intermetallic compounds of this type are of interest in materials science for applications requiring combinations of low density, high stiffness, and gold's chemical inertness. Engineers would consider this material only in specialized research contexts or advanced development projects where the unique properties of this specific ternary system offer advantages over conventional alloys.
