    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spark_plug

    Spark plug with single side electrode An electric spark on the spark plug. A spark plug (sometimes, in British English, a sparking plug, [1] and, colloquially, a plug) is a device for delivering electric current from an ignition system to the combustion chamber of a spark-ignition engine to ignite the compressed fuel/air mixture by an electric spark, while containing combustion pressure within ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platinumiridium_alloy

    Platinumiridium alloys are alloys of the platinum group precious metals platinum and iridium. Typical alloy proportions are 90:10 or 70:30 (Pt:Ir). These have the chemical stability of platinum, but increased hardness. The Vickers hardness of pure platinum is 56 HV while platinum with 50% of iridium can reach over 500 HV.

    Iridium compounds are used as catalysts in the Cativa process for carbonylation of methanol to produce acetic acid. [92] [93] Iridium complexes are often active for asymmetric hydrogenation both by traditional hydrogenation. [94] and transfer hydrogenation. [95] This property is the basis of the industrial route to the chiral herbicide (S ...

  7. Platinum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platinum

    From 1889 to 1960, the meter was defined as the length of a platinum-iridium (90:10) alloy bar, known as the international prototype meter. The previous bar was made of platinum in 1799. Until May 2019, the kilogram was defined as the mass of the international prototype of the kilogram, a cylinder of the same platinum-iridium alloy made in 1879 ...
