    Talking about the gold k number and purity measurement method

    Foreword:

    In addition to 24K pure gold, gold also has alloys with silver, copper and zinc. Example: A sample of 18K gold alloy contains 75% of the total weight of gold, and the rest is usually occupied by 16% silver and 9% copper. In addition to gold, silver and copper, the 14K gold alloy will have a little zinc alloy. Therefore, for gold and K gold recyclers, in order to recover the cost, the main gold recovery K is divided into three typical alloy samples: gold and copper, gold and silver, or gold and copper & silver. Therefore, 18K gold alloys also have different density values ​​and colors depending on their mixing ratio. In general, copper-bearing gold alloys appear reddish, silver-bearing gold alloys appear cyan, while copper and silver-bearing gold alloys appear yellow.

    motivation:

    The author understands the methods used by the silver floor operators, gold, K-gold recycling industry and pawnshops to identify the gold content.

    First, non-destructive:

    A, X-RAY scan gold alloy surface: According to the current model, the power is only 120w, because the power is too small, the thickness of the infiltrated scan is less than 30μm. Because the scan thickness is too thin for the gold package is not measured. And X-RAY has radiation concerns, which can cause damage to the human body.

    B. Water scale method: According to the water replacement method of Archimedes, the density is determined, and the purity of gold contained in the alloy is judged. Since the alloy is the density of the mixing ratio, the formula has a certain algorithm. It is not the data obtained by simply hanging the gold in the water, and calculating the gold content of the gold to make a transaction. Such gold and K gold recyclers will pay more. We will discuss this for this.

    If the pure gold density is 19.32, the silver density is 10.53, and the copper density is 8.90 g / cm3, what is the overall density of the 22k gold alloy? What is the overall density of the 18k gold alloy? What is the overall density of the 14k gold alloy? What is the overall density of the 12k gold alloy? What is the overall density of 9K gold alloy?

    Second, destructive:

    C, combustion method: (not discussed)

    D, scratch surface method: (not discussed)

    Glossary:

    [Carat Carat] What is it: We also call it K number or open number. 1 carat is 1/24 of the weight.

    Don't confuse the word "carat". It is a unit of weight in addition to being used as a unit for diamonds or other precious stones. Carats used in gold alloys refer to a weight ratio of 1 in 24 or 41.66 per 1000. The higher the carat number, the higher the ratio of gold to the base metal. Therefore, pure gold is equal to 24 carats.

    [Purity purity] is what:

    We are also known as the thousand feet or the color. In units of 1000. There is a so-called purity description of 999, even 999.9. Such as 750 is 18K, 585 is 14K...etc.

    [Gold Gold] is what:

    Gold itself is a yellow metal element and is a simple shape used for the inlay of general jewelry. It is a too soft metal. Although some cultures must wear pure gold jewelry, they need to be carefully designed when they are manufactured and used in large quantities. The reason gold causes golden yellow is because gold absorbs purple and blue light and reflects yellow and red light.

    [Gold alloy] is what:

    It is usually an alloy made by mixing gold with other metals, and it is a mixed metal of two or more kinds. Throughout history, most people like the color of gold jewelry, which is still close to pure gold itself. Therefore, most jewelry have used gold alloys over the years. Gold blends with other metals to produce alloys including copper and silver, which are the most common gold alloy components.

    As for how to judge the amount of gold contained in the gold alloy, the following mistakes are understood:

    A: The average person understands the gold alloy. The 18k gold alloy is 75% gold because it is 18/24, and the other is composed of silver and copper 6/24, which is equivalent to 100%. So, for the average person:

    Gold: (0.75) × (19.3 g /cm^3) = 14.45 g/cm^3

    Silver: (0.16) × (10.5 g /cm^3) = 1.68 g / cm^3

    Copper: (0.09) × (8.9 g / cm^3) = 0.801g/ cm^3

    Then, add them up: 16.96 =17.0 g/cm^3

    Not what is its requirement? I understand that this calculation is wrong.

    B: The silver building industry, the gold recycling industry, and the pawn shop operators all use the [water scale method], which is to put the product on the weighing pan to determine the weight of the sample in the air, and then place the container filled with water in the balance. After deducting the weight, the sample to be weighed is tied with a fishing line and then immersed in water. The water displacement method using Archimedes [the weight of water added to the sample into the liquid is the volume of the sample]. The density of the sample is then determined by W/V and divided by the gold density of 19.32 to determine the purity of the sample. Or directly use the formula of density conversion to K number to determine the K number of the sample.

    Gold density × 1.2422 = K number. (19.32=24K). My understanding of this calculation is also wrong.

    Technical data:

    The combination of the three precious metals of gold, silver and copper in the market varies according to the approval standards of the products of each country. The silver and copper ratios that are ubiquitous now are about 1, silver 3: 7 copper. 2, silver 4: 6 copper. 3, silver 5: 5 copper three combinations. Below we will describe the combination of silver 3: 7 copper.

    The theoretical basis of the [water scale method]:

    The density of the gold contained in the alloy is determined by using the underwater replacement method of Archimedes to determine the density. The wrong [% by weight] method is generally used instead of the [% by volume] method. The total volume of gold, silver, and copper after the alloy is the sum of the individual volumes. Therefore, the gold number and purity we want are the overall density of the gold alloy after mixing. So we will compare the overall density of the samples at 22K, 18K, 14K, 12K, 9K and the water scale method between the gold and silver 3: 7 copper.

    What is the overall density of A, 22k gold alloy?

    What is the overall density of B, 18k gold alloy?

    What is the overall density of C, 14k gold alloy?

    What is the overall density of D, 12k gold alloy?

    What is the overall density of E, 9K gold alloy?

    in conclusion:

    Gold alloy products are based on their proportions, each with a different overall density value. From the above we can confirm two points:

    A: The K number is above 18K. Using the [water scale method] to obtain the K value is close to the value of the product itself. B: The K number is below 18K. Using the [water scale method] to obtain the K value is different from the value of the product itself. And the smaller the K number, the bigger the gap.

    Therefore, it is worth paying attention to recycling manufacturers:

    [Not a single point of pure gold density 19.32 = 24K directly converted K number as the basis for buying and selling. 】

    We hope to do our best for the silver building industry, gold, K gold recycling industry, and shoppers.

    Servo Encoder Slip Ring

    A servo encoder slip ring is a specialized device that is used in conjunction with a servo motor to allow for the transfer of electrical power and signals between the motor and stationary components. The slip ring consists of a number of metal contacts that are arranged in a circular pattern, and it is typically mounted on the shaft of the motor. As the motor spins, the contacts within the slip ring make contact with corresponding contacts on the stationary components, allowing for the transfer of power and signals.


    The primary benefit of using a servo encoder slip ring is that it prevents wear and tear on the electrical connectors that would otherwise be subjected to constant movement. Additionally, it can help to improve reliability and performance by providing a more consistent flow of power and signals.


    It is specially developed for servo motor and servo motor encoder slip ring. It has the characteristics of small size, light weight, low power consumption, and long life. The inner diameter of the slip ring is only 10mm, which can be used in a small space. The service life of the slip ring is more than 100,000 hours, and the power consumption is only 0.5W.


    A servo encoder slip ring is a device that allows an electrical current to pass between rotating and stationary parts of a machine. It does this by using a set of brush contacts that rotate with the shaft, while stationary contacts are mounted on the housing. This allows for uninterrupted power and data transmission in applications where the stationary component cannot be easily moved.
