Abstract (en)

Galvanoplastic deposition of a gold alloy on an electrode dipped into a bath including gold metal in alkaline aurocyanide form, organometallic compounds, a wetting agent, a sequestering agent and free cyanide, where the alloy metal is copper, which is in double copper and potassium cyanide form, and silver, or in cyanide form, comprises depositing a mirror-bright yellow gold alloy on the electrode, where the bath respects a proportion of 9.08% gold, 90.85% copper and 0.07% silver containing neither cadmium nor zinc. Independent claims are also included for: (1) an electrolytic deposition in the form of a gold alloy obtained from the above method having a thickness of 1-800 mu and comprising copper and silver as the third main compound, allowing a bright 3N color to be obtained; and (2) an electrolytic deposition is in the form of a gold, copper, and silver alloy, where the deposition is made of gold (75%), copper (21%) and silver (4%), allowing a bright 3N color to be obtained.

Abstract (fr)

L'invention se rapporte à un procédé de dépôt galvanoplastique d'un alliage d'or sur une électrode plongée dans un bain comportant de l'or métal sous forme d'aurocyanure alcalin, des composés organométalliques, un mouillant, un complexant, du cyanure libre. Selon l'invention, les métaux d'alliage sont du cuivre sous forme de cyanure double de cuivre et potassium, et de l'argent sous forme cyanure permettant de déposer sur l'électrode un alliage d'or du type jaune miroir brillant. L'invention concerne le domaine des dépôts galvaniques.
