Storage & Handling
This material requires controlled handling. Supplier information identifies significant toxicity and sensitization hazards, including respiratory and skin sensitization; handling should therefore follow the current SDS, appropriate PPE and applicable transport requirements.
Specification Note
For the UAB An Group Export website, do not publish a fixed purity or platinum percentage as your own specification until the actual supplier CoA is confirmed. Commercial grades vary—for example, Johnson Matthey lists 46.5–47.0% Pt, while other commercial grades are offered at 99.9–99.99% metals basis with specified platinum content.
