Iridium is a very dense platinum-group transition metal with exceptional resistance to corrosion and high-temperature attack. It occurs naturally mainly with platinum-group minerals and in nickel-copper sulfide ores. Chemically it forms robust complexes, especially in oxidation states +3 and +4, and it is notable for the global iridium anomaly associated with the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary impact layer.
Iridium, a metal of the platinum family, is white (similar to platinum) but with a slight yellowish cast. Because iridium is very hard and brittle, it is hard to machine, form, or work.
It is the most corrosion-resistant metal known, and was used in making the standard meter bar of Paris, which is a 90 percent platinum and 10 percent iridium alloy. This meter bar was replaced in 1960 as a fundamental unit of length (see Krypton).
Iridium is not attacked by any of the acids nor by aqua regia, but is attacked by molten salts, such as NaCl and NaCN. The specific gravity of iridium is to osmium's specific gravity. Calculations of the densities of iridium and osmium from the space lattices give values of 22.65 and 22.61 g/cm^3, respectively. These values may be more reliable than actual physical measurements for determining which element is heavier.
The name derives from the Latin Iris, the Greek goddess of rainbows, because of the variety of colours in the element's salt solutions. Iridium and osmium were both discovered in a crude platinum ore in 1803 by the English chemist Smithson Tennant. Iridium was discovered independently by the French chemist H. V. Collet-Descotils, who actually published his paper one month before Tennant, but Tennant is given credit for the discovery, perhaps because he alone also found osmium in the ore.
Iridium and osmium were discovered at the same time by the British chemist Smithson Tennant in 1803. Iridium and osmium were identified in the black residue remaining after dissolving platinum ore with aqua regia, a mixture of 25% nitric acid (HNO3) and 75% hydrochloric acid (HCl). Today, iridium is still obtained from platinum ores and as a by-product of mining nickel.
From the Latin word iris meaning rainbow. Tennant discovered iridium in 1803 in the residue left when crude platinum is dissolved by aqua regia. The name iridium is appropriate because its salts are highly colored.
Pure iridium is a hard, brittle, silvery-white metal with a high luster. It remains bright in air under ordinary conditions and has an unusually high melting point. Bulk metal is difficult to machine because of its hardness and brittleness.
Iridium is used where chemical durability and high-temperature strength justify its cost. Major applications include crucibles for growing oxide crystals, spark-plug electrodes, electrical contacts, and wear-resistant alloys with platinum or osmium. Iridium coatings and components are used in some aerospace and industrial equipment. Radioisotope thermoelectric generators have used ¹⁹²Ir? No; ¹⁹²Ir is chiefly a gamma source for industrial radiography and some brachytherapy, not an energy source.
Pure iridium is very brittle and is nearly impossible to machine. It is primarily used as a hardening agent for platinum. Platinum-iridium alloys are used to make crucibles and other high temperature equipment. Iridium is also alloyed with osmium to make the tips of fountain pens and compass bearings.
Iridium is the most corrosive resistant metal known. For this reason, the standard meter bar was created from an alloy of 90% platinum and 10% iridium. This bar was replaced as the definition of the meter in 1960 when the meter was redefined in terms of the orange-red spectral line of krypton-86.
A thin, worldwide layer of iridium exists in a layer of sediment that was put down at the end of the Cretaceous period. Since meteors and asteroids contain a higher percentage of iridium than the earth's crust, this iridium enriched layer is seen as evidence that the earth was struck by a large meteor or asteroid at that time. Dust from the impact would have spread around the globe, depositing the iridium. The dust also would have blocked the sun for a time, resulting in the extinction of many plant and animal species, including the dinosaurs.
Although its principal use is as a hardening agent for platinum, iridium is also used to make crucibles and devices requiring high temperatures. It is also used for electrical contacts.
The element forms an alloy with osmium which is used for tipping pens and compass bearings.
Isotopes in Industry
Metallic 192Ir (with a half-life of 74 days) is used as a radiation source in gamma cameras for non-destructive testing of products for manufacturing flaws, such as aircraft parts, boilers, and pipeline welds (Fig. IUPAC.77.1) [274] P. Hayward, D. Currie. “Radiography of welds using seleniuim 75, Ir 192 and x-rays”, in Asia-Pacific Conference on NDT, Auckland, New Zealand (2006)..
Isotopes in Medicine
Metallic 192Ir is used in brachytherapy [188] S. J. Adelstein, F. J. Manning. Isotopes for Medicine and the Life Sciences, pp. 20–25, National Academy Press, Washington DC (1995)., [521] A. Talamo, Y. Gohar.

Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment.369, 709 (1996).. 191mIr (with a half-life of 5 s) is used for blood flow imaging (angiography), especially in pediatric populations [524] K. J. Kairemo, M. S. Kestilä, S. Savolainen, O. A. Korhola, J. V. Hiltunen, R. I. Svahn, E. T. Korppi Tommola, F. F. Knapp, C. Brihaye. J. Nucl. Biol. Med.38, 86 (1994)., [525] S. T. Treves, A. B. Packard, L. C. T. Fung. J. Nucl. Med.45, 508 (2004).. The m in the superscript 191mIr indicates a metastable state of the isotope.
Isotopes Used as a Source of Radioactive Isotope(s)
Iridium consists of two stable isotopes (191Ir and 193Ir) from which the radioactive isotopes 192Ir and 195mPt (with a half-life of 4 days) can be produced. Both are used in nuclear medicine. The m in the superscript 195mPt indicates a metastable state of the isotope.
Iridium chemistry is dominated by coordination compounds and oxides rather than simple salts. Common oxidation states are +3 and +4, while lower and higher states occur in organometallic or strongly oxidizing systems. Iridium(IV) oxide, IrO₂, is an electrically conducting oxide used in dimensionally stable anodes and electrochemical research. Hexachloroiridic acid, H₂IrCl₆, and related chloroiridate salts are important refining and precursor compounds. The complex [Ir(ppy)₃] is a representative phosphorescent organoiridium emitter.
See more information at the Iridium compound page.
Massive iridium metal is chemically inert and has low acute toxicity, but finely divided powder can present dust and fire hazards. Soluble iridium salts and organoiridium compounds should be treated as potentially toxic because biological effects are compound-specific and incompletely characterized. The radionuclide ¹⁹²Ir emits penetrating gamma radiation and requires strict shielding and source control.
Iridium is extremely scarce in the crust and is usually dispersed with other platinum-group elements. Natural mobility is low because the metal and many of its minerals are resistant to weathering, although complexing ligands and industrial processing can mobilize small amounts. The sharp enrichment of iridium in some boundary clays is widely used as evidence for extraterrestrial material mixed into sediment.
Iridium is recovered chiefly as a by-product of platinum-group metal refining from nickel-copper sulfide ores and platinum placers. Supply is constrained by the production of the host metals, complex separation chemistry, and limited primary deposits. Demand is small but specialized, so substitution is possible in some electrical and catalytic uses but difficult in high-temperature crucibles and certain corrosion-resistant components. Recycling from spent electrodes, crucibles, and industrial scrap is important because the metal is rare and costly to replace.
Iridium occurs uncombined in nature with platinum and other metals of this family in alluvial deposits. It is recovered as a by-product from the nickel mining industry.
Iridium is a heavy r-process and s-process element made in late stellar evolution and explosive astrophysical environments. In the Solar System it is far more abundant in primitive meteorites than in Earth’s crust, because much of Earth’s original inventory partitioned into the core during differentiation. This siderophile behavior makes iridium a sensitive tracer of meteoritic input.
