Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of specimen processing, in particular to a manufacturing process of a splash-color crystal specimen. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid advancement of science and technology, and the rapid development of various composite materials and techniques, the production of crystal specimens based on epoxy resin is also booming. The typical crystal specimen production process involves preparing a mold made of silicone or other materials, directly placing dehydrated flowers or the main material in place, then injecting a well-mixed transparent epoxy resin, typically used for small pieces. After the resin is allowed to stand for a period of time and fully solidifies, it is demolded and polished, resulting in a simple, transparent, amber-like crystal specimen. These finished products are primarily used for long-term specimen preservation, teaching research, and hand-decoration. However, their aesthetic appeal is limited, lacking any artistic creativity or individuality, making them difficult to qualify as high-end crafts or works of art. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The technical solution of the present invention is further illustrated below through specific implementation methods.

[0027] In this embodiment, the producer conceived the design scheme based on the humanistic attributes and cultural connotations of the specimen body and adopted the freehand color splashing technique of traditional Chinese painting, combined with current materials and technical conditions, to carry out a creative crystal specimen production process.

[0028] A process for making a splash-color crystal specimen uses a dehydrated peony as the specimen body, comprising the following steps: first, dehydrating the flower specimen to preserve its color; adding a curing agent to multi-color fast-curing epoxy resin glue respectively, stirring them evenly, and pouring them into the bottom of a mold simultaneously; drawing different patterns on the curing agent with a bamboo stick; after waiting for curing, placing the flower specimen and quickly fixing it with shadowless glue; pouring a transparent resin and a curing agent into a container in proportion, stirring them evenly, and then placing the container in a high-power vacuum machine to remove bubbles to obtain a glue liquid; then injecting the glue liquid into the mold until the top of the flower specimen is immersed; placing the mold in a vacuum box to evacuate bubbles; placing the mold in a glue basket filled with cooling water, and adjusting the surrounding space to a low temperature; maintaining a constant temperature in the mold space for curing, and removing the glue liquid from the glue basket after the glue liquid surface settles and shrinks, and then letting it stand; after the glue liquid surface is completely cured, removing the mold and performing a grinding and polishing process.

[0029] Specifically, green, blue and golden colors are used to match the splash color in the epoxy resin glue, and pearl powder is added. The patterns drawn in the curing agent include cloud patterns and water patterns. Before placing the flower specimen, crushed gold foil is sprinkled in the curing agent. During the rapid curing of the shadowless glue, a butterfly specimen is placed on the flower specimen, and a peacock tail feather is placed under the flower specimen. After evacuating the air in the vacuum box and removing bubbles, the mold is taken out and the resin glue is injected. When the surrounding space is controlled to be low temperature, the space used is an air-conditioned room. The amount of cooling water in the glue basket is flush with the glue liquid surface. The temperature of the space where the mold is located is adjusted according to the size of the specimen and the heat index of the transparent resin. The constant temperature curing time of the glue is 48-72 hours, the initial curing time is 4-8 hours, and the standing time is 1-2 days.

[0030] Peonies are renowned for their beauty and fragrance, both nationally recognized and renowned for their wealth and splendor. To embody these cultural attributes, this technique begins with the use of green, blue, and golden yellow as splash colors. Because dehydrated leaves tend to lose their color, green is used to enhance the vibrant, vibrant color of the flowers. Transparent yellow with a touch of pearlescent powder evokes elegance and grace, while translucent sky blue evokes purity and grace. These three colors are then mixed with fast-curing epoxy resin glue in the desired amounts, followed by a hardener. Stir thoroughly and pour the mixture into the mold base simultaneously, allowing it to flow and blend naturally. Alternatively, use a bamboo stick to create moire or water ripple patterns, creating a variety of effects while maintaining a natural, yet varied appearance. To enhance the effect, sprinkle in some gold foil. Once the base color has stabilized, the main flower can be placed and secured with shadowless adhesive. To further enhance the vibrant, vibrant peony, a suitable butterfly specimen is placed atop the flower, also secured with shadowless adhesive. Peacock tail feathers can also be placed under or next to the flowers as a foil, which adds richness and highlights the nobility and elegance of the peony.

[0031] After completing the above process, prepare enough high-quality transparent resin. Because peony flowers are large, a large amount of material is required for a single injection. Therefore, the resin performance requirements are: high transparency, low heat generation, easy defoaming, and yellowing resistance. First, pour the resin and curing agent into a clean container in proportion. The container should be as large as possible to facilitate stirring and evacuation. After thoroughly stirring, place it in a high-power vacuum machine to remove most of the bubbles. Then, slowly inject it into the mold cavity containing the specimen material. When the glue liquid initially submerges the top of the main body, temporarily stop the glue injection. Then, carefully place the mold filled with resin glue into a vacuum box to evacuate the air bubbles. After the bubbles are basically cleared, carefully remove it and inject enough resin glue. Because the resin glue will settle and shrink to a certain extent after curing, the shrinkage should be considered when injecting the glue.

[0032] Move the resin-filled mold into an air-conditioned room and place it in a plastic basket with cooling water, ensuring the water level is consistent with the level of the resin in the mold. Once this is done, adjust the room temperature based on the size of the crystal specimen and the heat index of the resin used, generally maintaining it around 20°C. Add a fan to increase air circulation if necessary.

[0033] During the curing period of the colloid, the indoor temperature must be kept constant. Larger volumes may require 48-72 hours of curing time. Finally, when the surface of the colloid in the mold shows obvious settling and shrinkage, it can be determined as preliminary curing. After 4-8 hours of preliminary curing, the air conditioner can be turned off. Then, the mold is taken out of the water basket, placed on a flat surface, and allowed to stand for 1-2 days. After the colloid is fully cured and hardened, it can be demolded and polished. Finally, you can get a colorful, unique, and visually rich colored crystal specimen craft or artwork! The above is an example, and you can also draw inferences from it. Design solutions are conceived based on the cultural connotations of different specimens, using different color combinations, but the process is basically the same.

[0034] It should be stated that the above-mentioned specific implementation methods are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and the technical principles used. Within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, any changes or replacements that can be easily thought of by technicians familiar with this technical field should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
