Strong alloys
Sandia National Laboratories has devised a platinum-gold alloy said to be the most wear-resistant metal in the world.

The alloy is 100 times more durable than high-strength steel, putting it in the same class as diamond and sapphire for wear-resistant materials. “We showed there’s a fundamental change you can make to some alloys that will impart this tremendous increase in performance over a broad range of real, practical metals,” said Nic Argibay, a materials scientist at Sandia.
