Eine derartige Platinlegierung ist in der
Aus der
Nachteilig an diesen bekannten Platinlegierungen ist, dass Gallium zwar geringe, aber durchaus nicht zu vernachlässigende toxische Eigenschaften besitzt. Die Verwendung einer derartigen Gallium enthaltende Legierung für eine Anwendung in der Schmuckindustrie wird daher nach heutigen Maßstäben - insbesondere hinsichtlich der Bio-Verträglichkeit - als unbefriedigend angesehen. Außerdem besitzt Gallium in nachteiliger Art und Weise eine hohe Sauerstoffaffinität, was negative Auswirkungen bei einem Gießprozess haben kann. Des weiteren neigen galliumhaltige Platinlegierungen bei einer Wärmebehandlung zu einer Versprödung.A disadvantage of these known platinum alloys is that although gallium has low, but certainly not negligible toxic properties. The use of such a gallium-containing alloy for an application in the jewelry industry is therefore considered by today's standards - especially in terms of bio-compatibility - unsatisfactory. In addition, gallium has a disadvantageous high oxygen affinity, which may have negative effects in a casting process. Furthermore, they tend gallium-containing platinum alloys in a heat treatment to embrittlement.
In der Schmuckindustrie wird üblicherweise sogenanntes Juwelierplatin, also eine Platinlegierung mit mindestens 95 Gew.%, insbesondere zur Herstellung von besonders wertvollen Schmuckstücken, verwendet. Reines Platin ist zu weich für die Verwendung in der Schmuckindustrie, außerdem ist der hohe Schmelzpunkt von reinem Platin hinderlich für dessen Verarbeitung. Zur Herstellung des besser verarbeitbarem Juwelierplatins werden daher die Eigenschaften des reinen Platins diesbezüglich verbessernde Zusatzstoffe hinzugefügt: Die
Das Ziel sämtlicher vorgenannter Legierungen ist eine Absenkung der Schmelztemperatur des Platins zur besseren Nutzung im Schmuckguss sowie eine Verbesserung der mechanischen Festigkeit. Dabei soll der edle Charakter des Platin nicht beeinträchtigt und die gute mechanische Verarbeitbarkeit erhalten bleiben.The goal of all the above alloys is to lower the melting temperature of the platinum for better use in jewelery casting and to improve the mechanical strength. The noble character of the platinum should not be impaired and the good mechanical processability should be preserved.
Es ist Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ausgehend von der bekannten Platin-legierung eine, insbesondere für die Verwendung zur Schmuckherstellung geeignete, Platinlegierung zu schaffen, die einen gegenüber reinem Platin tiefer liegenden Schmelzpunkt besitzt, hinreichend mechanisch verarbeitbar und dabei die Verwendung von Gallium vermieden wird.It is an object of the present invention, starting from the known platinum alloy to create a suitable, in particular for use in jewelery production, platinum alloy, which has a lower than pure platinum melting point, sufficient mechanical processing and the use of gallium is avoided.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass der Goldanteil zwischen 1 bis 4 .Gew.% beträgt, und dass die Legierung des weiteren 1 bis 4 Gew.-% Indium enthält, wobei sich die Anteile von Platin, Indium und Gold, von Verunreinigungen abgesehen, zu 100 Gew.-% ergänzen.The object is achieved according to the invention in that the gold content is between 1 and 4% by weight and that the alloy furthermore contains 1 to 4% by weight of indium, the proportions of platinum, indium and gold, apart from impurities , to 100 wt .-% complete.
Die erfindungsgemäße Platinlegierung zeichnet sich durch eine hohe Festigkeit, ein niedriges Schmelzintervall und eine gute chemische Stabilität aus. Überraschenderweise hat sich gezeigt, dass die Kombination von Platin mit Indium und Gold das Schmelzintervall der erfindungsgemäßen Platinlegierung senkt, die Härte verbessert und den edlen Charakter der erfindungsgemäßen Platinlegierung steigert. Das vergleichsweise niedrige Schmelzintervall der erfindungsgemäßen Platinlegierung lässt für einen Gießprozess genügend Freiraum, die Schmelztemperatur zu variieren, so dass die erfindungsgemäße Platinlegierung insbesondere für den Schmuckguss geeignet ist. Die erfindungsgemäße Platinlegierung ist in besonderer Art und Weise ebenfalls sehr gut geeignet für die Halbzeugfertigung, da bei ihr hohe Festigkeiten mit einer guten Formbarkeit zusammentreffen, so dass die aus der erfindungsgemäßen Platinlegierung hergestellten Halbzeuge später leicht mit einer CNC-Maschine bearbeitet werden können.The platinum alloy according to the invention is characterized by a high strength, a low melting interval and a good chemical stability. Surprisingly, it has been found that the combination of platinum with indium and gold lowers the melting interval of the platinum alloy according to the invention, improves the hardness and increases the noble character of the platinum alloy according to the invention. The comparatively low melting interval of the platinum alloy according to the invention leaves sufficient freedom for a casting process to vary the melting temperature, so that the platinum alloy according to the invention is particularly suitable for jewelery casting. The platinum alloy according to the invention is also very well suited for semifinished product production because it combines high strengths with good formability, so that the semifinished products produced from the platinum alloy according to the invention can later be easily processed with a CNC machine.

Außerdem sind die b*-Werte der beschriebenen Legierungen alle kleiner als 5, der Gelbanteil ist danach niedrig.It can be seen that the group formed by the described platinum alloys differs significantly from the standard platinum alloys described above in the aforementioned diagram. Noteworthy is the negative a * value of the platinum-gold-indium alloys described, while all other alloys tested have a neutral or positive a * value. In addition, the b * values of the described alloys are all smaller than 5, the yellow component is then low.
Die gemessenen L*, a* und b*-Werte sind in der Tabelle der
Des weiteren wurden die Farbabstände ΔE1.2 nach DIN (Deutsche-IndustrieNorm) berechnet. Die resultierenden Farbabstände sind in der Tabelle der
Für eine Anwendung von Platinlegierungen in der Schmuckindustrie ist eine ausreichende Härte und für eine CNC-Bearbeitung von metallischen Werkstoffen sind noch höhere Härten wünschenswert. Erstaunlicherweise hat sich gezeigt, dass die beschriebenen Platin-Gold-Indium-Legierungen erstaunlich hohe Härten besitzen. Die Legierung gemäß dem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel besitzt eine Härte in HV von 160, die des vierten Ausführungsbeispiels eine Härte von 165 HV, die des fünften Ausführungsbeispiels von 155 HV, die des sechsten Ausführungsbeispiels von 168 HV und die des siebten Ausführungsbeispiels von 171 HV.For an application of platinum alloys in the jewelry industry is a sufficient hardness and for a CNC machining of metallic materials even higher hardnesses are desirable. Surprisingly, it has been shown that the described platinum-gold-indium alloys have surprisingly high hardness. The alloy according to the first embodiment has a hardness in HV of 160, that of the fourth embodiment has a hardness of 165 HV, that of the fifth embodiment of 155 HV, that of the sixth embodiment of 168 HV and that of the seventh embodiment of 171 HV.
Aus obigem zeigt sich eindeutig, dass insbesondere Ruthenium enthaltenen Legierungen gemäß dem sechste Ausführungsbeispiel durch eine deutlich höhere Härte auszeichnen, so dass durch die Verwendung von Ruthenium ca. 170 HV möglich ist.It can be clearly seen from the above that, in particular, alloys containing ruthenium according to the sixth exemplary embodiment are significantly higher Hardness, so that by the use of ruthenium about 170 HV is possible.
Ein weiterer Vorteil der beschriebenen Legierung ist, dass diese nicht aushärtet. Dies ist insbesondere für das Gießen oder die Wärmebehandlung wie z. B. Löten während des Verarbeitungsprozesses wichtig, da hierdurch keine unerwünschten Versprödungen auftreten.Another advantage of the described alloy is that it does not harden. This is especially for the casting or the heat treatment such. As soldering during the processing process important, since this undesirable embrittlement occur.
Die Solidus-Temperatur der beschriebenen Legierungen liegt bei ca. 1.632°C, die Liquidus-Temperatur bei ca. 1.657°C. Dieser vergleichsweise niedrige Schmelzintervall lässt in vorteilhafter Art und Weise für den Gießprozess genügend Freiraum, die Schmelztemperatur zu variieren. Die Gießversuche mit den beschriebenen Legierungen haben gute bis sehr gute Ergebnisse erbracht, die Neigung zur Porosität ist geringer ausgeprägt als bei bekannten Platin950-Legierungen und Tiegel- oder Einbettmasse-Reaktionen wurden nicht beobachtet. Außerdem zeichnen sich die beschriebenen Legierungen auch aufgrund ihres hohen Edelmetallgehalts durch eine hohe chemische Stabilität aus.The solidus temperature of the described alloys is about 1,632 ° C, the liquidus temperature at about 1,657 ° C. This comparatively low melting interval advantageously allows sufficient freedom for the casting process to vary the melting temperature. The casting trials with the described alloys have yielded good to very good results, the tendency for porosity is less pronounced than in known platinum alloys and crucible or embedding mass reactions were not observed. In addition, the alloys described are characterized by a high chemical stability also due to their high precious metal content.
Die vorgenannten Legierungen sind gut geeignet für die Halbzeugfertigung, insbesondere für die spätere CNC-Bearbeitung, da hohe Festigkeiten mit guter Verformbarkeit zusammentreffen.The abovementioned alloys are well suited for semis production, in particular for the subsequent CNC machining, since high strengths combine with good deformability.
Zusammenfassend ist festzustellen, dass die beschriebenen Platinlegierungen gute Farb- und mechanische Eigenschaften trotz der Vermeidung von toxisch bedenklichem Gallium aufweisen und sich durch einen niedrigen Schmelzpunkt und gute mechanische Verarbeitungsqualitäten auszeichnen.In summary, the described platinum alloys have good color and mechanical properties despite the avoidance of toxically dubious gallium and are characterized by a low melting point and good mechanical processing qualities.
