As it absorbs the hydrogen, it expands visibly, like a sponge swelling up when absorbing water. •The largest use of palladium is in catalytic converters for automobiles. •Finely divided palladium is used as a catalyst for hydrogenation/dehydrogenation reactions and for petroleum cracking •Palladium is used in dentistry, watch making, and in making surgical instruments and electrical contacts. •It is also used to purify hydrogen because the gas easily diffuses through heated palladium. • This is high quality yet cheap affordable Palladium Safety / Caution • Keep out of reach from children! • Palladium is considered to be of low toxicity • Do not ingest • When working with metals it is a good idea to always have some type of eye protection, mouth protection and gloves on.
