Platinum 90% Iridium 10%

This is a great all-around alloy that will not oxidize and has been widely used for years in both casting and fabrication.

Scientific

• Symbol: Pt
• Density: 21.45
• Melting Temp: 1769 C (3216 F)
• Appearance: Silvery White

Practical

• Corrosion resistant metal that will not oxidize
• Hypoallergenic metal—there are no documented cases of skin reaction
• Biocompatible metal—platinum is suitable for implant applications in humans
• High density metal—platinum is one of the densest elements on earth, exceeded only by osmium and iridium, two other platinum group metals
• Unique metal—approximately 20% of goods manufactured in the world contain platinum or are produced using platinum due to its unique capabilities in terms of density, corrosion resistance, thermal  conductivity, and catalytic abilities
• Platinum can be reclaimed from obsolete applications and sold at prevailing market prices for scrap
