Platinum is used in the electrical engineering industry because platinum never corrodes. Furthermore it’s used for catalysts or in petrochemistry and the automotive industry. Even for fertilizer production, platinum is essential because it never affects or falsifies the chemical process. And think about the medical use we mentioned. Platinum is used to build cardiac pacemaker because its tolerance to body compatibility is absolutely exceptional. This tolerance is responsible for platinum’s usage in dental gold compositions.
