About Palladium Market
Palladium is a rare metal that has a silvery-white and lustrous appearance. It is one of the six platinum group metals, which has similar properties and is present in the same mineral ores. The metal exhibits a strong resistance to the action of acids other than nitric acid and is also resistant to corrosion at room temperature.
Palladium occurs as a free metal and is found alloyed with metals such as gold and other platinum group metals. It is also found along with nickel-copper deposits, which form the main commercial source of palladium. Moreover, growing demand for automobiles from an expanding middle class in developing regions worldwide will fuel the demand for palladium, which is used in catalytic converters of vehicles.
