· JVASP-105419· PtRh

PtRh is a platinum-rhodium alloy that combines the corrosion resistance and thermal stability of platinum with rhodium's hardness and wear resistance. This noble metal alloy is widely used in high-temperature and chemically aggressive environments where standard metals fail, including catalytic converters, thermocouples, laboratory equipment, and specialized industrial furnaces. Engineers select PtRh when extreme durability, oxidation resistance, and reliability in harsh conditions justify its premium cost compared to base metal alternatives.

Export Control

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
