Ti1Au4 is an intermetallic compound combining titanium and gold in a 1:4 atomic ratio, belonging to the class of noble metal intermetallics. This material is primarily of research and specialized application interest, leveraging gold's biocompatibility and corrosion resistance combined with titanium's strength and low density to create compounds for high-performance or biomedical contexts. The Ti-Au system has been investigated for dental restorations, implantable devices, and specialized aerospace or electronics applications where corrosion immunity and biocompatibility justify the material cost.
