贵金属元素数据 燃料电池（固体高分子型）的原理与白金的功用 对地球环境友善的燃料电池是当今倍受瞩目的下一代新能源供给方式。白金，就是被利用于燃料电池的原料之一。 利用不同的白金催化剂电极使「氢气」与「氧气」产生化学反应，从而发出「电能」，且过程中不排出二氧化碳（CO2）或大气污染物质，只排出「水」。「白金」在这种干净的发电方式中大展身手。
贵金属元素数据 利用钯膜的氢气选透机制 钯具有只让氢原子穿透的高度筛选能力。 因着这项特性，将能利用钯金属膜将氢原子由混合气体中筛出，并制作高纯度氢气。因此，钯被当做是最小的「原子筛」，在制造「半导体」或「LED」制程中所需的超高纯度氢气，或「燃料电池」所需的氢气时，十分有帮助。
贵金属元素数据 增加硬盘记录容量的钌 钉被用于硬盘圆盘(磁碟)层状构造中的一层, 有助于增加硬盘的记录容量。 以往的硬盘，是借着增加水平方向的磁性信号密度来增加记录容量。但是当密度过高时，将会导致保存资料的稳定性达到极限。因此，厂商发展出使记录用的磁性信号向垂直方向排列的方法，借此来提升记录密度。为了完成这种「垂直磁性记录方式」，钌是硬盘记录层不可或缺的底层材料。
贵金属元素数据 汽车排气净化用催化剂的构造与铑的功能 铑能够除去造成酸雨原因的物质NOx（氮氧化物），对环保驾驶有所贡献。 三元催化剂能够将包含在汽车排气中的有害污染物质去除，防止有害物质释放到大气中。铑尤其能够将造成酸雨原因的NOx（氮氧化物）还原为Ｎ2（氮气）；白金和钯能够将碳氢化合物还原为无害的水，并将一氧化碳氧化成二氧化碳，令汽车排气转化成干净气体后排出。
贵金属元素数据 用于火花塞的铱合金晶粒 铱合金能够在严苛的环境下耐腐蚀、耐热，有助于延长汽车火花塞的寿命。 在堪称汽车心脏部分的引擎汽缸里面，被压缩的汽油与空气所混合的气体不断地重复着起火、爆炸的过程。在既高温又严苛的引擎内部环境中，铱合金被用来制作位于火花塞前端的电极。
贵金属元素数据 让银大展身手的「镜子」 银能够反射几乎100％的光线。自古以来，「镜子」就是利用银的这项特性而被制造的。 玻璃的内侧形成一层银膜。这层银膜还有被铜、树脂膜层保护住。 通常，我们是由玻璃板的外侧看见被这层银膜反射后由玻璃透出的光线。由于银能够反射几乎所有的可见光，所以我们会感受到比利用其他金属反射时都还要明亮、清楚的自然光线。
贵金属元素数据 活跃在钢笔笔尖的锇 锇与铱的合金，令钢笔更加耐用。 某些钢笔的笔尖使用了锇合金。 （在铱锇合金中，含有较多锇的被称为Osmiridium，含有较多铱的则称为Iridosmine。） 为达到钢笔滑顺的书写手感，钢笔笔尖必须拥有适度的弹性与光滑性，这也是一支钢笔的生命线。锇合金打造的钢笔笔尖拥有极高的耐酸性、耐磨损性，能够维持长年不变的书写手感。 * 我们不处理锇合金。
