Its most common application is in catalytic converters for automobiles. Palladium is also alloyed with gold to create high-quality white-gold jewelry and is in fact the shiniest metal. The current price of palladium as of spring 2021 is $2648 USD per ounce which is about 50% more than the value of gold.

Safety

We get asked about the radioactivity and overall safety of the periodic tables/cubes from time to time. These are legitimate concerns and we wanted to address those concerns here. Although there are several elements in the cubes that are dangerous or toxic, the acrylic and glass ampules make the products safe to handle and store.

The average American is exposed to 0.034 mrem/hr from background radiation (300 mrem/year). In other words, a person will get three times the radiation from natural background radiation which includes the sun, food, radon, and the environment, than they will from holding a radioactive element in one of our Lucite Acrylic displays.
