Alloys of gold

Main article: Gold

The alloys of gold are expressed in karats. 24 karat gold is fine gold, which is .999 or better purity. If an alloy is mixed which is 14 parts gold and 10 parts alloy, that is 14 karat gold, 18 parts gold is 18 karat, etc. This is often expressed as the result of the ratio, ie: 14/24 equals .585 (rounded off), and 18/24 is .750. There are hundreds of possible alloys and mixtures possible, but in general the addition of silver will color gold green, and the addition of copper will color it red.

NationMaster.com - Encyclopedia: Alloys (490 words)
The properties of alloys are frequently far different from those of their constituent elements, and such properties as strength and corrosion resistance may be considerably greater for an alloy than for any of the separate metals.
Another alloying technique is ion implantation, which has been adapted from the processes used to produce computer chips; beams of ions of carbon, nitrogen, and other elements are fired into selected metals in a vacuum chamber to produce a strong, thin layer of alloy on the metal surface.
An alloy with two components is called a binary alloy; one with three is a ternary alloy; one with four is a quaternary alloy.
