platinized

Given platinum coating

Platinized means coated or treated with platinum, typically to enhance conductivity, corrosion resistance, or catalytic properties.

The term appears most often in technical contexts: platinized electrodes, platinized titanium anodes.

A platinized surface has a thin layer of platinum deposited on a base material.
