2. Shibuichi - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shibuichi

   Aside from the basic 25% silver to 75% copper mix, combinations as divergent as 5% silver to 95% copper are also marketed as "shibuichi". [1] A wide range of colours can be achieved using the whole range of alloy compositions, even above 50% silver, e.g. 90% copper and 10% silver for a dark grey and down to 70% copper and 30% silver for lighter greys.

3. Conservation and restoration of silver objects - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_and...

   Silver is known in the chemistry world as a noble metal, which means it is resistant to corrosion, but not completely immune. Whether silver plating or pure silver, the composite of the metal will tarnish when exposed to air and sulfur. Tarnish is a chemical reaction on the surface of metal (copper, brass, silver, etc.) and causes a layer of ...

4. Plating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plating

   Plating is a finishing process in which a metal is deposited on a surface. Plating has been done for hundreds of years; it is also critical for modern technology. Plating is used to decorate objects, for corrosion inhibition, to improve solderability, to harden, to improve wearability, to reduce friction, to improve paint adhesion, to alter conductivity, to improve IR reflectivity, for ...

5. Parkes process - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkes_process

   Because the zinc is immiscible in the lead it remains in a separate layer and is easily removed. The zinc-silver solution is then heated until the zinc vaporizes, leaving nearly pure silver. If gold is present in the liquid lead, it can also be removed and isolated by the same process. [1] The process [2] was patented by Alexander Parkes in 1850.

6. Gold plating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_plating

   There are several types of gold plating used in the electronics industry: [3] Soft, pure gold plating is used in the semiconductor industry. The gold layer is easily soldered and wire bonded. Its Knoop hardness ranges between 60 and 85. The plating baths have to be kept free of contamination. Soft, pure gold is deposited from special electrolytes.

7. Silver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver

   The two metals are completely miscible as liquids but not as solids; their importance in industry comes from the fact that their properties tend to be suitable over a wide range of variation in silver and copper concentration, although most useful alloys tend to be richer in silver than the eutectic mixture (71.9% silver and 28.1% copper by ...
