PmAg2Sn is a ternary metallic alloy combining promethium (rare earth element), silver, and tin. This is a specialized research-phase material developed for applications requiring controlled radioactive properties combined with metallic conductivity and corrosion resistance. The inclusion of promethium—a radioactive lanthanide—distinguishes this alloy from conventional precious metal systems and limits its use to niche applications where radioisotope functionality is essential, such as nuclear instrumentation, radiometric devices, or specialized thermoelectric generators.
