Platinum on carbon

Catalog Number
ACMA00003170
Product Name
Platinum on carbon
Category
Fuel Cell Catalysts
Description
Silvery, whitish-gray, malleable, ductile metal. Mp: 1772°C; bp: 2187°C. Density: 21.45 g cm-3 at room conditions (very dense). Also shipped as a finely divided powder (platinum black), as a sponge, and as particles deposited on a supporting material such as alumina. Has strong catalytic activity in these forms; finely divided platinum can be dangerous to handle in the vicinity of other chemicals on this account. Used platinum catalysts are particularly dangerous and can be explosive.;OtherSolid;Solid;BLACK POWDER.;Silvery, whitish-gray, malleable, ductile metal.;Silvery, whitish-gray, malleable, ductile metal.
