Abstract
Platinum thin films can be deposited on materials which are not able to survive oxidizing environments at high temperatures. This work demonstrates that a thin layer of platinum can be deposited on materials and that it had good adhesion and is able to protect the materials at high temperatures in acidic and oxidizing environments.
