Platinum group elements (PGEs, i.e. platinum, Pt; palladium, Pd; and rhodium, Rh) catalyse over 90% of carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides hydrocarbons from combustion residues into water vapour, dioxide in the vehicle’s catalytic converter. But there is a major concern these metals scientific world, since they are emitted by converters accumulating environment. The distribution PGEs PM10 fraction...

Metal alloys consisting of a platinum group metal—ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium or platinum—and one or more transition metals are important for catalytic reactions in automobiles, chemistry, and petroleum production. In addition, many of the alloys used in aeronautics and electronics contain platinum group metals. Alloys beyond those currently used in these industries could be ...

platinum is a metallic element, which may react with our cellular component through its involvement in cancer chemotherapy medications. cisplatin is one of the most useful antineoplastic drugs against human ovarian carcinoma, which has the central element of platinum in its structure. the nature of chemical interaction between platinum and cellular macromolecules is yet to be understood. we exa...

Iridium is very important element among the all transition metals with highest reported oxidation state i.e. +9 in gas phase existing species IrO4. Instead of its less reactivity, it forms number of compounds having oxidation states between -3 to +9. It is second known densest element after osmium. Till now its toxicity and environmental impact is not much more reported and thus it may be use a...
