Platinum Alloys

Platinum alloys are mixtures of platinum with other metals, enhancing certain properties for various applications. Pure platinum is valuable but too soft for many uses. By combining it with metals like palladium, iridium, or gold, the resulting alloy gains increased strength, durability, and resistance to tarnish and corrosion. These alloys are commonly used in jewelry, dental work, and industrial applications due to their favorable characteristics. The combination ensures that the benefits of platinum—such as its luster and hypoallergenic qualities—are preserved while improving its performance in demanding environments.
