The 21 pages that link to Platinum, each with the reason it gives.

• Transition metalBroader topic: Platinum exemplifies durable, catalytically active metals used in chemical processing and emissions control.

• Fuel cellRelated: Platinum catalysts raise cost and supply concerns, motivating efforts to reduce or replace them.

• GoldCompared with: Platinum is another noble precious metal, but it is gray-white and typically harder than gold.

• Catalytic converterRelated: Platinum helps oxidize carbon monoxide and unburned hydrocarbons in exhaust.

• SilverCompared with: Platinum is more chemically inert than silver and belongs to a different transition-metal group.

• PalladiumCompared with: Platinum is palladium’s better-known platinum-group counterpart and often competes in catalytic applications.

• IridiumCompared with: Platinum is a more workable platinum-group metal, while iridium is harder and more resistant to wear.

• RhodiumCompared with: Platinum is more abundant and often complements rhodium in exhaust-catalyst formulations.

• d-blockBroader topic: Platinum-group metals exemplify the block’s role in catalytic converters and chemical synthesis.

• OsmiumRelated: Osmium was discovered in the insoluble residue left during purification of native platinum.

• RutheniumCompared with: Platinum is a familiar catalytic and alloying counterpart, generally more malleable than ruthenium.

• Aqua regiaRelated: It is another noble metal that aqua regia can dissolve.

• RheniumCompared with: Platinum provides the principal catalytic activity in reforming catalysts; rhenium modifies its performance.

• Wedding ringRelated: Platinum is a durable alternative metal used for wedding bands.

• Group 10 elementBroader topic: Platinum’s resistance to oxidation and versatile catalysis exemplify the group’s heavier members.

• Antonio de UlloaBroader topic: Ulloa described this metal, encountered in South American gold workings, to European readers.

• Colored goldCompared with: It is a naturally pale jewelry metal, unlike alloy-whitened gold.

• Elemental materialsBroader topic: Elemental platinum surfaces catalyze reactions in chemical processing and emissions control.

• Gerhard ErtlRelated: Platinum surfaces served as a model catalyst in Ertl’s carbon monoxide oxidation experiments.

• Platinum groupBroader topic: It is the best-known member and a major benchmark for the group’s properties.

• SperryliteRelated: Platinum is the metal that sperrylite concentrates in its crystal structure.
