Chloroplatinic acid hexahydrate for luxembourgish laboratories

Chloroplatinic acid hexahydrate is the standard platinum precursor for platinum catalysts (Adams' catalyst PtO2, Pt/C, Speier's and Karstedt's hydrosilylation catalysts), electroplating and platinising of electrodes, platinum nanoparticles and fuel-cell electrocatalysts. Like all soluble chloroplatinates it is a potent respiratory and skin sensitiser and must be handled in a fume hood with full containment of dust and aerosols. Each lot is supplied with a platinum assay and full certificate of analysis. Full documentation — GHS classification, safety data sheet, certificate of analysis by lot — is on the Chloroplatinic acid hexahydrate product page.

Used for Catalysis, Hydrosilylation, Fuel cells, Electroplating, Nanoparticle synthesis and Organic synthesis. As a dangerous good it ships to Luxembourg by the licensed courier; the surcharge is one per consignment, not per pack.

Ordering is by quotation: send the pack size and quantity, we reply within one working day with price, lead time and shipping to Luxembourg in EUR. See also everything we ship to Luxembourg and the shipping and dangerous-goods notes.
