PLATINODE® Wire - Platinum Coated Wires Ø 0.05 - 1.5 MM

Highly adhesive platinum coating of refractory metals

Platinum coating is carried out using high temperature electrolysis (HTE). In this process, the platinum is deposited from a cyanide salt melt at temperatures of 500 to 600°C. The platinum layer produced in this way not only has high ductility and maximum purity, but also superior adhesion and is free from internal stress. Coatings with high load-bearing capacity, maximum corrosion resistance and excellent durability can be produced. In this way, layers from 0.1 to 10.0 μm can be deposited in a dense, adhesive and ductile manner.

The HTE platinum coating is deposited in a cyanide salt melt and is therefore free of organic substances.

This highly adhesive platinum coating is mainly used for refractory metals such as titanium, niobium, molybdenum, tantalum, stainless steel, nickel, CrNi, FeNi, Inconel, copper, etc.
