Osmium is a platinum group element. Platinum group elements exist almost completely in elemental state and are highly dispersed in various ores. For example, the original platinum ore, nickel-copper sulfide ore, magnetite and so on. Platinum group elements co-exist almost without exception to form natural alloys. In ores containing platinum group elements, platinum is usually the main component, while the rest of the platinum group elements must be found through chemical analysis due to their small content. Since osmium, iridium, palladium, rhodium, and ruthenium all form ores together with platinum, they are all found in the residues after platinum extraction from platinum ore. At present, our company sells a large number of osmium granules and osmium ingot materials at reasonable prices.

Osmium can be used as a catalyst in industry. When osmium is used as a catalyst for ammonia synthesis or hydrogenation, higher conversions can be obtained at not too high temperatures. If a little osmium is mixed into platinum, it can be made into a hard and sharp osmium platinum alloy scalpel. Osmium-iridium alloys can be made from osmium and a certain amount of iridium. For example, the silver-white dot on the nib of some advanced gold pens is osmium-iridium alloy. Osmium-iridium alloy is hard and wear-resistant, and can be used as bearings for clocks and important instruments. , the service life is very long.
