Abstract
A method for manufacturing an alloy formed from a boride of a precious metal, may involve reacting a source of the precious metal with a source of boron in a salt or a mixture of salts in the molten state. An alloy formed from a boride of a precious metal may include crystalline nanoparticles of MxBy with M being a precious metal, distributed in an amorphous matrix of B or in an amorphous matrix of B and of MzBa.
