Unlike other metals, gold will not tarnish or rust. It is completely recyclable and virtually immune to the effects of air, water, and oxygen. Its beauty combined with a host of other properties make it an important material for a wide range of uses.

Property

Gold is the most heat reflective (capable of reflecting or bouncing back heat) material known. High purity gold reflects up to 99% of infrared rays.

Use

Gold is used in life-saving shields for astronauts and workers exposed to very high heat.
