Detailed Product Description
90 Platinum 10 Iridium Wire descriptionThe alloy has been used in "non-standard" thermocouples, electrical
contacts and electrodes in medical research. This alloy is harder
and mechanically stronger than platinum. This wire has a composition of 90% platinum and 10% iridium and is
widely used in the assembly of microelectrode probes. Iridium is a
platinum group metal that is dense and hard and adds strength to
the wire. A 90/10 platinum-iridium alloy with 10% iridium can be
cast, welded, machined, and stamped; it is ductile and ductile; it
can be work hardened; and it does not oxidize easily. Alloys are
generally produced by vacuum arc melting or induction melting. Other uses of platinum-iridium alloys include electrical contacts,
spark plugs, electric explosive devices, medical leads and
electrodes, thermistors, catalytic applications, jewelry, pen tips,
surgical pins. Some uses of platinum-iridium alloys include pacemakers, which are
used to treat heart conditions that cause slow or irregular
heartbeats, and typically contain at least two platinum-iridium
electrodes through which electrical impulses are transmitted to
stabilize the heartbeat. 90 Platinum 10 Iridium Wire Specification
