Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of copper product processing, and in particular to a method for preparing a copper product surface with a cyan thermal coloration. Background Art

[0002] Copper is the earliest metal used by humans and occupies an extremely important position in the world's smelting history. my country has experienced a glorious copper age and has left many exquisite copper craft art works in history. Copper and copper alloy products have been widely used in handicrafts, accessories, and artistic creations, and are loved and sought after by everyone. In chemical decoration, copper surface coloring actually makes the metal copper interact with the chemical solution to form a surface oxide layer, sulfide layer or other compound layer, which strengthens the copper surface, improves the overall performance or changes its color presentation.

[0003] Traditional bronze coloring methods mostly use cold coloring or natural coloring, which is to place the copper pieces outdoors or bury them in the soil, add some formulas, and let them slowly change color on the surface. Nowadays, chemical bronze coloring is more common. Chemical copper coloring uses heating as a catalyst to promote chemical reactions between compounds and the bronze surface, and naturally produces various colors to achieve the effect of decorating the bronze surface. The color of the copper surface, the traditional color spots, are generally monotonous: limited to a few colors such as green rust, iron red spots, and black tones.

[0004] With the development of society, chemical technologies for metal surface decoration and protection, such as chemical plating, oxidation heating coloring, and room temperature chemical coloring, have emerged one after another. The traditional room temperature production method of copper green has a long cycle, slow effect, great environmental impact, difficult color control, and easy further oxidation after sealing, and the adhesion of the coloring film is also relatively poor. The traditional flame thermal coloring method has high technical operation difficulty, high site requirements and equipment investment, and there are also relatively large safety hazards in actual operation. Summary of the invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing blue-green thermal coloring of the surface of a copper product, which has a relatively simple process, uniform and rapid coloring, high operation safety, bright film color, firm color film and low cost.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problem is: A method for preparing a cyan thermal coloration of a copper product surface comprises the following steps: (1) Pretreatment: Prepare copper products, sandblast or chemically pickle the surface of the copper parts to remove the surface oxide layer and oil stains, then further polish and clean them with a scouring pad in water, then rinse with clean water and blow dry; prepare a copper blackening agent solution, immerse the copper parts in the copper blackening agent solution for 2 to 5 seconds, then rinse with clean water and immerse again in the copper blackening agent solution for 3 to 5 seconds, finally rinse and dry for use; (2) Prepare white reagent for base coating, and blue and green reagents for coloring; (3) Surface coloring: Place the copper piece treated in step (1) in a 120°C oven for preheating for 5-10 minutes, take it out and use a heat gun to maintain its surface temperature at 70-120°C; Use a spray pot to spray the white agent on the surface of the copper piece in a mist form and dry it with a hot air gun. Repeat this process several times until a uniform white base layer appears on the surface of the copper piece. Use a spray pot to spray the blue and green agents alternately on the white base layer in a mist form and dry them with a hot air gun. Repeat this process several times until a uniform gradient blue-green coloring layer appears on the surface of the copper piece. (4) Post-processing: Dry the colored copper parts and cool them to room temperature, spray varnish to seal the surface, and inspect them after drying.

[0007] The present invention is characterized in that an improved thermal coloring process is combined with a specific cyan formula, thereby forming a new cyan color system on the surface of the copper product. The coloring is uniform and fast, the film is bright in color, and the color film is firm. The copper parts use conventional 62~68 brass or red copper. Step (3) spraying with a spray pot can obtain a more uniform film layer with strong adhesion, which is conducive to the reaction of the potion with the substrate and obtains good mechanical properties. The blackening treatment is combined with a white base layer to better cover the base color. A simple white base layer easily reveals the base color, resulting in poor color development.

[0008] Use a spray pot to spray the blue and green agents alternately on the white base layer in a mist form, and dry them with a hot air gun. Repeat this process many times. Specifically, spray the blue agent immediately after spraying the green agent, or spray the green agent immediately after spraying the blue agent, dry them with a hot air gun, then spray the blue agent immediately after spraying the green agent, or spray the green agent immediately after spraying the blue agent, dry them with a hot air gun, and repeat this process.

[0009] For the cyan color, the present invention designs a specific formula, wherein copper nitrate, copper sulfate, and nickel sulfate are used as mordants and metal colorants, and directly react with copper at a certain temperature in the formula to form a certain cyan color, and further color development is achieved by mixing with inorganic pigments. Copper sulfate and nickel sulfate are also relatively active in nature. In addition to enhancing color development, they can also improve color saturation and make the colors more vivid. Bismuth nitrate in the formula itself has strong oxidizability, and is reactive and slightly corrosive to the copper surface with copper nitrate, copper sulfate, and nickel sulfate raw materials in the formula. The compounding of several raw materials has a mutual synergistic effect, which can not only form a relatively stable oxide film on the surface of the copper substrate, but also produce a certain adhesion effect on the inorganic pigment, thereby improving the color film fastness. Since bismuth nitrate is slightly soluble in water, easily soluble in nitric acid and ethylene glycol, and easily undergoes hydrolysis in aqueous solution, in order to prevent bismuth nitrate from hydrolyzing and performance degradation, nitric acid and ethylene glycol are added to the formula as auxiliary solvents for water. At the same time, since nitric acid also has a corrosive effect on the copper surface, it can further enhance the reactivity and bonding between the reactants and the copper substrate, and further improve the adhesion of the coloring layer. In addition to assisting in inhibiting the hydrolysis of bismuth nitrate and increasing its solubility in water, ethylene glycol can also enhance the dispersibility, uniformity and color development of the pigment in the formula due to its low molecular weight, active properties and high miscibility with water, and can also make the color of the coloring film layer delicate and uniform, further enhancing the color presentation.

[0010] In addition, with regard to the coloring process, the present invention also designs a hot air gun heating coloring process that is different from the traditional flame coloring process. The thermal coloring temperature is lower, the technical operation difficulty is relatively lower, and the operation safety is higher.

[0011] Preferably, the white agent formula is: bismuth nitrate 12-20g / L, copper nitrate 0.3-2g / L, copper sulfate 0.3-3g / L, nickel sulfate 0.4-3g / L, nitric acid 5-20ml / L, ethylene glycol 20-50ml / L, titanium dioxide 10-30g / L, and water as the balance.

[0014] Preferably, the mass concentration of nitric acid is 5-10%.

[0015] Preferably, in step (1), the copper blackening agent solution is prepared by mixing copper blackening agent: water in a mass ratio of 1:2-4.

[0016] Preferably, in step (1), the chemical pickling solution of the chemical pickling treatment has a formula of: 100 to 120 mL / L of concentrated sulfuric acid, 30 to 50 mL / L of concentrated hydrochloric acid, 6 to 9 g / L of urea, 0.8 to 1.2 mL / L of OP-10 emulsifier, and the balance of water.

[0017] Preferably, the mass concentration of concentrated sulfuric acid is 98%, and the mass concentration of concentrated hydrochloric acid is 36%.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. Compared with the traditional flame coloring process, the present invention can obtain a cyan colored oxide film layer with good mechanical properties, bright colors and natural gradient on the surface of copper handicrafts; bismuth nitrate combined with ethylene glycol and nitric acid can effectively prevent bismuth nitrate from hydrolyzing, and at the same time enhance the adhesion between the copper substrate and the oxide film; 2. The color produced by the process of the present invention is uniform, bright and saturated, and has good color development; 3. Since a hot air gun is used as a heating tool, not only the coloring temperature is lower, but the operation is also more convenient and safer; 4. The process is simple and easy to realize automated production, which has great promotion value. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
