Precious Metal Content

Pd nitrate solution type ACG Palladium(II) nitrate solution type ACG 10102-05-3 approx. 20% Pd
Pt nitrate solution type HNA Platinum(IV) nitrate solution type HNA 250584-28-2 approx. 20% Pt
Rh nitrate solution Rhodium(III) nitrate solution 10139-58-9 Approx. 9% Rh
Pt EA solution Bis(ethanolammonium)hexa-hydroxoplatinum(IV) solution 68133-90-4 Approx. 9% Pt

Our precious metal nitrate solutions of Palladium, Platinum and Rhodium can be mixed to create customized formulations to tackle industry-specific emission types. Through processes like hydrolysis and precipitation, the required metals or their oxides can be effectively deposited onto variable support materials. Using Pt EA solution, precipitation can be induced by acidification to enable deposition of Platinum or its oxides onto supports.
