ScAgAu is a ternary precious metal alloy combining scandium, silver, and gold. This is primarily a research-phase material system, as such compositions are not commonly commercialized; it falls within the family of high-performance metallic alloys being investigated for applications requiring combined nobility, low density relative to precious metals, and tunable mechanical properties. The scandium addition to precious metal systems is explored in academic and specialized materials research to achieve improved strength and corrosion resistance while maintaining the chemical stability and biocompatibility associated with silver and gold.
