Occurrence and Production
Palladium often alloyed with platinum and other platinum-group metals, is primarily produced in Russia, South Africa, and Canada. It is mainly extracted as a byproduct of nickel and copper mining and subsequently refined using various metallurgical techniques.
Uses of Palladium
Jewellery
Much like platinum, palladium is used in jewellery production due to its white color and ability to resist tarnish.
Electronics
Platinum also finds its application in the manufacturing of electronic components due to its conductive properties.
Catalysts
Dentistry
Palladium alloys are valued in dentistry for their biocompatibility and strength.
