Hi Joyce!

Have you checked with Indium yet? They deal in some really exotic alloys and
they do have some Cd alloys...didn't see any Cd-Ag-Sn ones though. If you go
to:

http://www.indium.com they have 4-pages of all the alloys they deal in...look
under their technical chart info. Page 3 of 4 lists all the alloys the say
are formulated especially for creep resistance.

Hope this helps!
