Typically for a transition metal, rhenium also acts a catalyst for many reactions. For example, a combination of rhenium and platinum comprise the catalyst of choice in the very important process ...

The chemistry of rhenium is also rather interesting. For example, it shows the largest range of oxidation states of absolutely any known element, namely -1, 0, +1, +2 and so on all the way to +7, the ...

PHASE diagram equilibrium studies in the binary tungsten–rhenium system show the presence of two phases over the range 0–65 wt. per cent rhenium at 1,500° C (ref. 1). A terminal solid ...
