Material Database

The Material Database enables you to find comprehensive data about precious metals and precious metal alloys. By setting filters, you can refine your selection, compare material properties, and access detailed technical data for each material.

Material database

For the selection of precious metal containing products, several dedicated selectors are available: Precious Metal Investment Bars, Master Alloys (Precious metal alloys for the jewellery industry), Precious Coatings (metallo-organic compounds for decoration and technical applications), Catalyst Selector (Heterogeneous Catalysts), Chemical Products Selector (Homogenous Catalysts and Precious Metal Compounds).
