· JVASP-157331· Mg2PtAu

Mg2PtAu is an intermetallic compound combining magnesium with platinum and gold, belonging to the family of lightweight metallic compounds with precious metal constituents. This material is primarily of research interest rather than established commercial use, investigated for applications requiring the combined benefits of magnesium's low density with the corrosion resistance and thermal stability provided by platinum-group metals and gold. The unusual composition makes it notable for potential use in high-performance aerospace or biomedical contexts where both weight reduction and exceptional resistance to oxidation or biological environments are critical, though commercial viability remains limited by cost and processing complexity.

Export Control

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
