VAu3 is an intermetallic compound composed of vanadium and gold, belonging to the class of ordered metallic compounds that exhibit high stiffness and specific structural characteristics. This material is primarily of research and experimental interest, investigated for applications requiring high elastic modulus and corrosion resistance where the unique properties of gold-vanadium combinations may offer advantages over conventional alloys. Its notable density and elastic characteristics make it a candidate for specialized applications in aerospace, electronics, or biomedical fields where vanadium's biocompatibility and gold's corrosion resistance are simultaneously valued, though commercial adoption remains limited.
