Platinates

Platinates are chemical compounds that contain platinum and can include other elements. They are formed when platinum reacts with certain anions, such as chlorides or oxides. Platinates are often discussed in the context of their applications in chemistry, including catalysis and materials science. They play a role in various industrial processes, medical therapies, and as precursors in the production of other platinum-containing compounds. Due to the rarity and value of platinum, platinates are of interest in fields such as jewelry, electronics, and pharmaceuticals.
