Iridium is a hard, brittle, lustrous, dense, transition metal of the platinum family. Iridium is the most corrosion-resistant material known. It is used in special alloys and forms an alloy with osmium, which is used for pen tips and compass bearings. It was used in making the standard metre bar, which is an alloy of 90% platinum and 10% iridium. It is also used for the contacts in spark plugs because of its high melting point and low reactivity. The antomic mass of Iridium is 192.217 amu and the melting point is 2410.0 °C (2683.15 K, 4370.0 °F). The density is 22.5 and the crystal is Cubic. Besides sputtering target, we also can offer Iridium  powder, bar, sheet, foil, disc, ribbon and filaments.

We specialize in producing custom compositions for commercial and research applications and for new proprietary technologies. Other sputtering targets, evaporation sources and other deposition materials is listed by material throughout the website.

Packing: The Iridium (Ir) Sputtering Target are vacuum sealed. The MSDS and Material Certification Sheets will be packed with the product.

Lead time: 2-5 weeks for sputter target, 1-2 weeks for bonding.
