The Elemental Composition of Metal Alloys

Green gold...white gold...red gold...chartreuse gold...yellow gold...royal blue with a hint of pink gold...

Are there any colors that can't be used to describe gold?

Compound Interest just posted a great graphic showing the metals in a number of common alloys - along with ranges for each metal's percentage composition within that alloy. Plus the page also has some explanations of just what alloys - particularly substitutional and interstitial alloys - are.

Great info...

  1. Thanks for explaining composition of various alloys with the percentage of its base metals. Really informative infographic I would say.
