Description

Verfahren zur Oberflächenbehandlung von synthetischen Edelsteinen der Korund- und Spinellklasse Für die technische Verwendung synthetischer Edelsteine ist es bisher erforderlich gewesen, die Steine zu schleifen und zu polieren, um eine spiegelglatte Oberfläche zu erhalten.Process for the surface treatment of synthetic gemstones of the corundum and spinel class For the technical use of synthetic gemstones it has hitherto been necessary to grind and polish the stones in order to to obtain a mirror-smooth surface.

Es wurde nun gefunden, d.aß die Herstellung derartiger Oberflächen bei synthetischen Edelsteinen der Korund- und Spinellklasse, die ganz oder im wesentlichen aus Tonerde bestehen, auf erheblich einfacherem und kürzerem Wege, nämlich dadurch erfolgen kann, daß die zu glättenden Steine während einiger Minuten mit geschmolzenem Borax behandelt werden, wodurch sie eine spiegelglatte und gleichzeitig durchsichtige Oberfläche erhalten. Unter Borax ist hierbei auch das dem natürlichen Borax entsprechende Kalisalz zu verstehen; der anzuwendende Borax kann auch noch freie Borsäure enthalten.It has now been found that such surfaces can be produced in the case of synthetic gemstones of the corundum and spinel classes, wholly or essentially consist of alumina, in a much simpler and shorter way, namely through it can be done that the stones to be smoothed for a few minutes with melted Borax are treated, which gives them a mirror-like and at the same time transparent Surface preserved. Borax here also means that which corresponds to natural borax To understand potash salt; the borax to be used can also contain free boric acid.

Durch die beschriebene Behandlungsweise soll lediglich eine Oberflächenätzung zur Beseitigung der Oberflächenrauheit erzielt werden. Im Gegensatz hierzu bewirkt das bekannte Ätzverfahren mit Kalium#bisulfat oder mit den aus der britischen Patentschrift 193 081 bekannten Ätzmitteln eine Tiefätzung, d. h. also eine Verstärkung der Rauheit durch Herausarbeiten der elementaren Kristallflächen. Die bekannten Verfahren weisen überdies den Nachteil auf, daß infolge der verschiedenen Stärke, mit der die einzelnen Kristallflächen, z. B. vom Bisulfat, angegriffen werden, regelmäßig eine Mattierung gewisser Flächen erzeugt wird, die bei dem vorliegenden Verfahren gerade vermieden werden soll.The method of treatment described is only intended to achieve surface etching to remove the surface roughness. In contrast to this, the known etching process with potassium bisulfate or with the etching agents known from British patent 193 081 causes deep etching, that is to say reinforcement of the roughness by working out the elementary crystal surfaces. The known methods also have the disadvantage that due to the different strength with which the individual crystal faces, for. B. are attacked by bisulfate, a matting of certain areas is regularly produced, which is precisely to be avoided in the present process.

Das neue Verfahren eignet sich insbesondere zur Glattätzung von Lager- und Uhrensteinen aus synthetischen Steinen der erwähnten Zusammensetzung, kann aber auch auf Rohbirnen sowie gesägte oder geschliffene Gegenstände aller Art Anwendung finden.The new process is particularly suitable for smooth etching of bearing and watch stones made of synthetic stones of the composition mentioned, but can Can also be used on raw pears as well as sawn or ground objects of all kinds Find.
