Applications
Gas sensors, other sensors, components for medical devices, various electrodes, heaters, Probe Pins, and others
Prevents decrease in strength caused by crystal grain coarsening in high-temperature environments, increasing the range of applications in harsh temperature environments.
In high temperature environments, crystal grains become coarse, causing a significant decrease in strength. With nanoplat™, a strengthened platinum material with dispersed ZrO₂ particles developed by TANAKA, the dispersed oxide particles work to hold the crystal grains together even at high temperatures, reducing the coarsening of the crystal grains and thereby preventing a decrease in strength and extending the lifespan.
Features
- Prevents crystal grain coarsening in high temperature environments and reduces strength loss
- Has the same electrical properties as the base Pt
