Dissolving platinum : A noncorrosive, basic ionic liquid has been developed as a solvent system for the electrodissolution of platinum (see image). The metal was dissolved at an ultrahigh rate, and the facile recovery of pure platinum and platinum alloys from the same solution was achieved without any additional treatment of the solution or exchange of the medium.
