Zr2Au is an intermetallic compound combining zirconium and gold, belonging to the class of binary metal intermetallics. This material is primarily of research and development interest rather than a commodity engineering material, explored for its potential combination of zirconium's strength and corrosion resistance with gold's chemical stability and wear properties. Applications are limited to specialized domains including high-temperature structural applications, wear-resistant coatings, and biomedical research where the dual benefits of zirconium's biocompatibility and gold's inertness may offer advantages in demanding environments.
