PROCEDE DE COLORATION EN PROFONDEUR DE LA SURFACE D'UN DEEP COLORING PROCESS FOR THE SURFACE OF A
SUBSTRAT EN ROCHE NATURELLE, TEL QUE LE GRANITE. SUBSTRATE IN NATURAL ROCK, SUCH AS GRANITE.
La présente invention a trait au domaine de la coloration en profondeur de la surface d'une matière dure et plus particulièrement des substrats en roche naturelle, The present invention relates to the field of deep coloring of the surface of a hard material and more particularly of natural rock substrates,
à des fins de décoration et de protection. for decoration and protection purposes.
Ces substrats en roche naturelle seront conventionnellement appelés 'substrats" dans le contexte These natural rock substrates will be conventionally called "substrates" in the context
de la présente invention.of the present invention.
La demanderesse a en effet constaté l'absence de procédé de coloration fiable d'un substrat en roche naturelle tel que le granite. Cette absence est bien entendu due à la composition même du granite, roche cristalline formée d'un mélange hétérogène de quartz, de feldspath et de biotite, mais aussi, au fait que personne n'ait jusqu'ici trouvé de procédé adéquat pour réaliser The Applicant has in fact noted the absence of a reliable coloring process for a natural rock substrate such as granite. This absence is of course due to the very composition of the granite, crystalline rock formed from a heterogeneous mixture of quartz, feldspar and biotite, but also, to the fact that no one has hitherto found an adequate process for producing
une coloration en profondeur du granite. deep coloring of the granite.
Cette absence pose des problèmes quant au nombre de coloris proposés par les décorateurs lesquels se trouvent nécessairement limités aux coloris naturels qu'offre l'extraction desdites roches. En outre, ces roches issues souvent d'éruptions volcaniques ont un coloris naturel assorti à la région géographique environnante d'o un This absence poses problems as to the number of colors proposed by the decorators who are necessarily limited to the natural colors offered by the extraction of said rocks. In addition, these rocks often resulting from volcanic eruptions have a natural color matching the surrounding geographic region where a

pour proposer à la vente une gamme plus étendue de coloris naturels. Pour répondre à une clientèle de plus en plus exigeante dans la diversité des coloris des éléments de construction réalisés dans ce type de matériau dur pour les revêtements d'aspect de sol ou les revêtements de - 2 - parement de façade ou encore pour le mobilier urbain ou de cuisine (plans de travail), les fournisseurs sont contraints de s'alimenter à partir de plusieurs zones d'extraction réparties dans de nombreux pays comme la France, l'Italie, l'Afrique, le Brésil, l'Amérique, etc.. Partant de ces constatations, la demanderesse a mené des recherches qui ont abouti à la mise au point d'un procédé original de traitement des substrats en roche naturelle tel que le granite ayant pour premier objectif de fiabiliser la coloration en profondeur desdits substrats à des fins de revêtement ou d'ornementation pour qu'il puisse garantir une durée de vie correcte et, pour deuxième objectif, d'obtenir à partir des résultats atteints, la protection accrue de l'état de surface des to offer for sale a wider range of natural colors. To respond to an increasingly demanding clientele in the diversity of colors of construction elements made in this type of hard material for floor appearance coatings or facade cladding or for street furniture or kitchen (worktops), suppliers are forced to feed from several extraction zones spread in many countries such as France, Italy, Africa, Brazil, America, etc. .. On the basis of these observations, the Applicant has conducted research which has led to the development of an original process for treating substrates in natural rock such as granite, the primary objective of which is to make the deep coloring of said substrates more reliable. coating or ornamental purposes so that it can guarantee a correct lifespan and, as a second objective, to obtain from the results achieved, the increased protection of the state of surface of
substrats ainsi colorés.substrates so colored.
Selon la caractéristique principale de l'invention, ce procédé de coloration d'un substrat en roche naturelle tel que le granite est remarquable en ce qu'il consiste: - dans un premier temps, à préparer l'état de surface du substrat à colorer, par exemple par application d'une solution à base d'alcool pour obtenir un dégraissage dudit état de surface, - dans un deuxième temps, à appliquer sur la surface dudit substrat venant d'être préparée, une solution de coloration à base de nitrate d'argent additionné à au moins un colorant, - dans un troisième temps, à révéler la couleur dudit substrat en exposant la face de ce dernier imprégnée de la solution de coloration, aux rayons ultraviolets jusqu'à séchage de la solution colorante, - et dans un quatrième et dernier temps, à nettoyer, de préférence à l'eau, l'état de surface du substrat According to the main characteristic of the invention, this process for coloring a substrate in natural rock such as granite is remarkable in that it consists: - firstly, in preparing the surface condition of the substrate to be colored , for example by applying an alcohol-based solution to obtain a degreasing of said surface condition, - in a second step, to be applied to the surface of said substrate which has just been prepared, a nitrate-based coloring solution silver added to at least one dye, - in a third step, to reveal the color of said substrate by exposing the face of the latter impregnated with the coloring solution, to ultraviolet rays until the coloring solution dries, - and in a fourth and final step, to clean, preferably with water, the surface condition of the substrate
venant d'être coloré.just being colored.
Ce procédé de coloration est particulièrement avantageux en ce qu'il utilise un véhicule (nitrate d'argent) du colorant qui a pour objet d'autoriser dans un - 3 - premier temps, la pénétration en profondeur de l'épaisseur du substrat par un mouvement migratoire naturel et ce, selon le coefficient d'absorptivité admis par la composition même du matériau du substrat, et dans un deuxième temps, la fixation de la couleur de l'épaisseur de matériau ainsi imprégnée par simple exposition aux rayons ultraviolets qui peuvent être naturels, tels que les rayons émis par le soleil. Ainsi, une simple exposition au jour suffit pour révéler la couleur de l'épaisseur du substrat venant d'être imprégnée de la solution de coloration. Bien que l'imprégnation de la solution de coloration puisse être obtenue par un mouvement migratoire naturel, il sera facile de forcer ce mouvement de pénétration par des techniques industrielles This coloring process is particularly advantageous in that it uses a vehicle (silver nitrate) of the dye which has the purpose of authorizing, in a first step, the deep penetration of the thickness of the substrate by a natural migratory movement and this, according to the absorptivity coefficient admitted by the very composition of the substrate material, and in a second step, the fixing of the color of the thickness of material thus impregnated by simple exposure to ultraviolet rays which can be natural, such as rays from the sun. Thus, a simple exposure to the day is enough to reveal the color of the thickness of the substrate which has just been impregnated with the coloring solution. Although the impregnation of the coloring solution can be obtained by a natural migratory movement, it will be easy to force this movement of penetration by industrial techniques
d'application communément employées dans ce domaine. commonly used in this field.
La demanderesse a appliqué avec succès son procédé de coloration avec pour matériau support, le granite, et ce par simple application et par une exposition naturelle aux rayons du soleil. Elle a remarqué que lorsqu'elle utilisait de préférence une solution de coloration en nitrate d'argent saturé laquelle consiste à dissoudre en chauffant un kilogramme d'argent pour deux litres d'acide The Applicant has successfully applied its coloring process with the support material, granite, by simple application and by natural exposure to the sun's rays. She noticed that when she preferably used a saturated silver nitrate coloring solution which consists of dissolving by heating one kilogram of silver for two liters of acid
nitrique, la coloration était de meilleure qualité. nitric, the coloring was of better quality.
Ce procédé de coloration de substrat en roche naturelle tel que le granite selon l'invention offre un autre grand intérêt dans la mesure o les différentes étapes peuvent être obtenues par des techniques industrielles particulièrement indiquées pour un traitement de coloration en grande série. Toutefois, bien que le procédé de l'invention soit prévu à des fins industrielles, l'utilisation de ce type de coloration a pour avantage d'autoriser une coloration manuelle d'un substrat tel que le granite, par simple application de la solution de coloration au moyen d'un pinceau et par simple exposition aux rayons naturels du soleil, du matériau This method of coloring a substrate in natural rock such as the granite according to the invention offers another great advantage insofar as the various stages can be obtained by industrial techniques which are particularly indicated for a large-scale coloring treatment. However, although the process of the invention is intended for industrial purposes, the use of this type of coloring has the advantage of allowing manual coloring of a substrate such as granite, by simple application of the solution of coloring with a brush and by simple exposure to the natural rays of the sun, of the material
ainsi imprégné.thus permeated.
- 4 - Selon un premier mode de mise en oeuvre du procédé de l'invention, le colorant de la solution de coloration peut être préalablement dilué dans la solution de nitrate d'argent saturé avant application. Cette préparation sera choisie préférentiellement dans le cas d'une coloration en According to a first embodiment of the process of the invention, the dye of the coloring solution can be previously diluted in the saturated silver nitrate solution before application. This preparation will preferably be chosen in the case of coloring in
grande série dite industrielle.large series called industrial.
Selon un deuxième mode de mise en oeuvre du procédé de l'invention, le colorant de la solution de coloration peut être préalablement déposé sur la surface dudit substrat avant l'application de la solution de nitrate d'argent saturé. Cette préparation sera choisie préférentiellement dans le cas d'une coloration en petite série dite artisanale qui permet, à partir d'une solution neutre de nitrate d'argent saturé, d'utiliser différents According to a second embodiment of the process of the invention, the dye of the coloring solution can be previously deposited on the surface of said substrate before the application of the saturated silver nitrate solution. This preparation will preferably be chosen in the case of coloring in a small series called artisanal which allows, from a neutral solution of saturated silver nitrate, to use different
colorants.dyes.
Un autre avantage à l'utilisation du procédé de coloration de l'invention réside dans la meilleure exploitation des produits extraits des carrières. Ainsi, par exemple, pour le granite, de nombreuses chutes de roches non exploitées pour diverses raisons (défaut, mauvais grain, petite taille) sont disponibles et prêtes à être utilisées pour un tel procédé qui redonnera auxdites Another advantage in using the coloring process of the invention lies in the better use of the products extracted from quarries. Thus, for example, for granite, many rock falls not exploited for various reasons (defect, bad grain, small size) are available and ready to be used for such a process which will give back to said
chutes un nouvel éclat à leur état de surface. falls a new shine to their surface state.
Le procédé de coloration de l'invention peut être précédé de certaines étapes de préparation de l'état de surface du substrat, à savoir pour le granite, le polissage qui assure une planéité parfaite de l'état de surface du matériau support. La préparation du matériau support peut être aussi effectuée par une gravure, un The coloring process of the invention can be preceded by certain steps for preparing the surface state of the substrate, namely for granite, polishing which ensures perfect flatness of the surface state of the support material. The preparation of the support material can also be carried out by etching,
sablage ou une excavation, etc...sandblasting or excavation, etc ...
Ce procédé est, de plus, particulièrement avantageux en ce qu'il permet d'envisager plusieurs sortes de colorations pour lesquelles la tenue et la qualité du revêtement ne pouvaient jusqu'ici être garanties. Bien entendu, la teinte du coloris sera choisie en fonction du grain et de la couleur du matériau du substrat afin -5- d'uniformiser l'aspect de la surface sur laquelle a été This process is, moreover, particularly advantageous in that it makes it possible to envisage several kinds of coloring for which the staying power and the quality of the coating could not hitherto be guaranteed. Of course, the shade of the color will be chosen according to the grain and the color of the substrate material in order to standardize the appearance of the surface on which it has been
appliquée la solution de coloration selon l'invention. applied the coloring solution according to the invention.
Dans le cas o le matériau du substrat est constitué par du granite qui est une roche grenue, le colorant de la solution de coloration respectera le grain caractéristique de ce dernier afin que certains de ses éléments constitutifs à savoir le Mica, le Quartz et le Feldspath In the case where the substrate material consists of granite which is a grainy rock, the dye of the coloring solution will respect the characteristic grain of the latter so that some of its constituent elements, namely Mica, Quartz and Feldspar
puissent être identifiables.can be identified.
Ainsi, la demanderesse a appliqué avec succès sur le granite, comme colorant de la solution de coloration à base de nitrate d'argent saturé, du bleu de méthylène, du vert malachite, de l'éosine, de la fuchsine, de la rutine, du vert brillant, de la vitamine B2, du jaune de beurre, Thus, the Applicant has successfully applied to granite, as a coloring agent, a coloring solution based on saturated silver nitrate, methylene blue, malachite green, eosin, fuchsin, rutin, bright green, vitamin B2, buttery yellow,
de la riboflorine.riboflorin.
On comprend néanmoins que le procédé de coloration d'un substrat en roche naturelle tel que le granite, qui vient d'être ci-dessus décrit, l'a été en vue d'une divulgation plutôt que d'une limitation. Bien entendu, divers aménagements, modifications et améliorations pourront être apportés à l'exemple ci-dessus, sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention pris dans ses It is nevertheless understood that the process for coloring a substrate in natural rock such as granite, which has just been described above, was done for the purpose of disclosure rather than limitation. Of course, various arrangements, modifications and improvements could be made to the above example, without departing from the scope of the invention taken in its
aspects et dans son esprit les plus larges. wider aspects and in his mind.
Le procédé ne doit pas en effet se limiter au matériau mais pourra être envisagé pour tout type de matériau. Ainsi, par exemple, dans une variante imaginée The process should not be limited to the material but could be considered for any type of material. So, for example, in an imagined variant
par la demanderesse, le substrat sera du marbre. by the Applicant, the substrate will be marble.
