Mg2SnAu
metal· JVASP-157388· Mg2SnAu
Mg₂SnAu is an intermetallic compound combining magnesium, tin, and gold—a ternary metal system that falls within the broader family of lightweight intermetallics. This material is primarily explored in research contexts for applications requiring combinations of low density with enhanced mechanical or functional properties, rather than as an established industrial commodity. Interest in this compound stems from magnesium's role in weight-critical applications and gold's contributions to corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity, making it potentially relevant for specialized aerospace, electronics, or biomedical components where conventional alloys fall short.
