Platinum Ultrafine Wire, a Goodfellow product in the wire range, is an ultrafine platinum wire with high ductility and excellent electrical conductivity. The high purity and uniform diameter of the wire make it ideal for use as filaments in mass spectrometry, and as fine interconnects in microelectronics. The ultrafine diameter allows intricate patterning while maintaining low electrical resistance. Platinum's inertness also suits the wire for biomedical devices and sensors. Within Goodfellow's selection of specialty metals, the Platinum Ultrafine Wire stands out for its combination of purity, fineness, and versatility.
