Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for obtaining an ornamental component made of a platinum alloy containing at least 80% by weight of platinum, having a particularly high hardness and which can be machined by the usual methods.
  • the component is intended for applications in watchmaking, jewelry, fine jewelry, eyewear, writing instruments, luxury accessories, and other decorative or functional applications where visual appearance is also important.
  • alloys of precious metals in particular platinum, since the properties of pure precious metal, such as platinum, are often not satisfactory, in particular in due to low hardness as well as medium gloss.
  • the document EP0621349 describes a process for hardening platinum on the surface with a surface layer containing boron.
  • the method described only allows the treatment of a finished part, and tends to affect the aesthetic appearance of the latter (color and temperature). On the other hand, even hardened, the surface can be damaged.
  • the restoration or refreshing of such a part requires a specific post-restoration process which can only be carried out under very specific conditions and is therefore not within the reach of restoration workshops equipped with conventional means.
  • the document GB2279967 provides a high purity platinum alloy containing cerium in small amounts. This alloy makes it possible to achieve hardnesses comparable, or even slightly higher, to that of a standard platinum alloy. Cerium being an element very sensitive to oxidation, the preparation of the alloy must be carried out under vacuum or under an inert gas, making the process complex. On the other hand, cerium has an average solid solubility in platinum, which also limits the homogeneity of the alloy obtained.
  • the document GB578956 provides a hardened platinum alloy by addition of oxides using a sintering process.
  • the process is complex and depends on the size of the powders and the homogeneity of the compound to be obtained.
  • the document JP1988145759 offers a platinum alloy containing in particular iron, palladium and copper, and the hardening of which is obtained in part by an operation of plastic deformation to the shape of the part to be obtained and by a heat treatment operation after the setting steps in shape.
  • This solution is therefore limited on the one hand by expensive matrix tools, and on the other hand by the heat treatment step which could promote recrystallization of the material, or even cause a surface texture to appear.
  • the document EP0947595 discloses a dispersion hardened platinum alloy. This alloy uses dispersion oxides in order to oxidize the non-noble metal. On the other hand, the dispersing elements not only tend to favor the wear of the tools, but they also make the polishing steps difficult.
  • Heat treatment hardening processes on finished platinum alloy components are also known. They have the disadvantage that the grain structure is changed, which affects the texture of polished surfaces.
  • EP2705170A1 proposes a process for obtaining a very high hardness platinum alloy by means of an amorphous structure, namely a metallic glass.
  • This high hardness involves a very particular material and a shaping process and moreover require very specific tools and very high associated costs.
  • the application of this technology to a wide range of products, very diverse in their geometries, is therefore not the most suitable from an industrial point of view.
  • the component obtained by the process of the invention has a hardness typically 25% to 50% higher than the hardness of the starting alloy.
  • the process allows the component to be obtained in its final shape and hardness without the need for heat treatment on the final component to modify its hardness.
  • the or severe plastic deformation cycles of step of hardening are intended to transform the crystal structure of platinum alloy into a grain structure ultrafine (English ultrafine grained UFG).
  • ultra-fine grain structure is meant a structure having a grain size of at least less than 1 ⁇ m in at least one grain orientation.
  • the grain size of the ultra-fine grain structure may be less than 500 nm, and even less than 200 nm, or even 100 nm.
  • the alloy comprises at least 80.0% of platinum and one or more of the following chemical elements: between 0% and 6% of ruthenium; between 0% and 5% copper; between 0% and 3% gallium.
  • the severe plastic deformation cycle (s) can be achieved using one of the methods, or a combination of these methods, comprising: equal channel angular pressing (ECAP ), angular extrusion according to equal channels (ECAP- accordance), high pressure torsion (high pressure torsion tube twisting or high pressure, or HPTT HPT), accumulative roll-bonding (accumulative roll bonding, ARB), repetitive corrugation and straightening (straightening and repetitive corrugation, SCR ), asymmetric rolling ( asymmetric rolling, ASR), cyclic extrusion-compression ( cyclic extrusion-compression, CEC), roller stamping (rotary swaging), or any other suitable method to obtain said structure with ultra-fine grains.
  • ECAP equal channel angular pressing
  • ECAP- accordance high pressure torsion
  • HPTT HPT high pressure torsion tube twisting or high pressure, or HPTT HPT
  • accumulative roll-bonding accumulative roll bonding
  • ARB repetitive corrugation and straightening
  • the method comprises a step of shaping the alloy so as to give the semi-finished product a particular shape.
  • the semi-finished product may take the form of a plate, bar, ingot, billet, or any other shape advantageous for the subsequent machining step.
  • the method also comprises a step comprising one or more restorative heat treatments.
  • Restorative heat treatment can be performed after the severe plastic deformation cycle, or between the severe plastic deformation cycles.
  • the parameters of the restorative heat treatment are adjusted so as not to completely relax the platinum alloy, so as not to degrade the second hardness obtained during the work hardening step.
  • the restorative heat treatment (s) is carried out at a temperature below 600 ° C., above which the mechanical properties of the alloy drop rapidly and the ductility increases.
  • the restorative heat treatment (s) is preferably carried out at a temperature above 250 ° C and below 600 ° C. In fact, below 250 ° C., the restorative heat treatment may have little or no effect for treatment times which are less than 1 hour, the thermal activation not being sufficient.
  • the figure 1 reports the evolution of the elastic limit (Rm in MPa) and of the maximum stress (Rp0.2 in MPa) for an alloy comprising at least 80.0% of platinum as a function of the temperature.
  • the figure 2 reports the evolution of the hardness (HV) of the same alloy as a function of temperature.
  • the restorative heat treatment (s) is preferably carried out at a temperature between 250 ° C and 500 ° C, or even between 250 ° C and 400 ° C.
  • Restoration heat treatment time can be one hour or less than one hour.
  • the method comprises one or more heat hardening treatments.
  • the hardening heat treatment or treatments make it possible to further increase the second hardness of the semi-finished product by the precipitation of the alloying elements.
  • the process of the invention makes it possible to obtain the semi-finished product with a second hardness which is at least 25% and even 50% higher than the first hardness of the starting alloy.
  • the machining step may include a material removal process such as turning, milling, grinding, spark erosion, cutting, laser or water jet cutting, or any other suitable process.
  • the machining step can also comprise a method of shaping by deformation, or by assembly.
  • the machining step can also include one or more finishing treatments, such as machining, satin-finishing, polishing, sandblasting, micro-blasting, etching or any other suitable mechanical process.
  • finishing treatments such as machining, satin-finishing, polishing, sandblasting, micro-blasting, etching or any other suitable mechanical process.
  • the machining step provides the component in its final shape and hardness. It is therefore not necessary to carry out heat treatment on the component obtained by the present process to modify its hardness. Indeed, the second hardness obtained for the semi-finished product by the hardening step corresponds to the desired hardness of the component.
  • the ornamentation component may comprise a horological component, for example a component of the movement, the bracelet or a covering component such as the case, the bezel, the back.
  • the ornamentation component may also include a component for jewelry, jewelry, eyewear, writing instruments, luxury accessories (key ring, lighter, cufflink, tie bar, etc.) and others. decorative or functional applications where visual appearance is also important.
  • an alloy comprising about 95% platinum and about 5% ruthenium is provided, having a nominal first hardness of about 120Hv.
  • the alloy is subjected to the first forming step and to the hardening step comprising at least one cycle of severe plastic deformation, so as to increase the second hardness of the semi-finished product to a value of at least 250 Hv.
  • the hardened semi-finished product has a second hardness of about 250 Hv.
  • the hardening step is carried out by the high pressure twisting method, the semi-finished product has a second hardness greater than 400 Hv.
  • an alloy comprising about 95% platinum, between 1% and 4% copper and between 1% and 4% gallium (for a total of about 5% copper and gallium), having a first nominal hardness of at least 200Hv.
  • the semi-finished product when the hardening step is carried out by the accumulative co-rolling method, the semi-finished product has a second hardness of about 300 Hv.
  • the semi-finished product can then be subjected to a subsequent hardening heat treatment step so as to increase the second hardness to a value of about 400 Hv.
  • the hardening step comprising at least one cycle of severe plastic deformation which can be followed by at least one restorative heat treatment, as described above.
  • the process for obtaining an ornamental component described here applies to any alloy comprising at least 80% by mass of platinum, and which may contain one or more of the following chemical elements: between 0% and 6% of ruthenium; between 0% and 5% copper; between 0% and 3% gallium.
