Precious metal compounds are bought for their catalytic, electrical and optical properties, and their price makes accurate metal content essential. This sub-category supplies salts, acids and supported catalysts of gold, platinum group metals and silver. Examples include Chloroauric acid at 12.5%, 25% and 49% Au and at 99.995% trace metals basis, Chloroplatinic acid hexahydrate ACS reagent at ≥37.50% Pt, Ammonium hexachloroplatinate and Platinum on charcoal at 5% and 10%.

Buyers check the stated metal content, since the cost is linked to it, and the impurity profile for catalytic or nanoparticle work. Supported catalysts are specified by metal loading, support type and water content. Gold and platinum salts are corrosive and some are sensitisers, so handling care is needed.

Products are packed in sealed glass or plastic, protected from light, and shipped with a COA showing metal content and an SDS. Prices follow precious metal markets, so quotations carry a short validity. Send your quantity and metal content requirement through the RFQ form for a current price.

Precious Metal Salts & Compounds: questions buyers ask

Why is chloroauric acid sold at several gold contents?
Chloroauric acid is offered as solids or solutions with different gold percentages for convenience. Higher-content solids suit nanoparticle synthesis and precise weighing, while solutions simplify plating and dilute reagent preparation. The price is mainly driven by the gold content, so compare offers on a per-gram-of-gold basis.
How do I choose between 5% and 10% platinum on charcoal?
Higher loading gives more catalytic metal per gram, allowing smaller catalyst charges and faster reactions, but at higher cost per gram. 5% loading is a common default for hydrogenations. Water-wet forms are safer to handle because dry precious metal catalysts can ignite solvents. Choose based on reaction scale and safety.
How are precious metal compounds priced?
Prices are linked to the current market value of the contained metal plus a processing charge. Because metal markets move daily, quotations are valid for a short time and may be adjusted at order confirmation. Larger quantities and repeat orders can be priced against agreed metal references.
