    When I used concentrated Nitric acid to dissolve the base metal in the watch cases,it was a very heavy exothermic reaction with a lot of Nitrous fumes,I was really scared!!
    Should I dilute the acid ?

    • @escrapchannel
      @escrapchannel  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi, that’s exactly how it works. If you use diluted acid you will have slower reaction, less fumes, acid will be used more effectively. So, if you are fine reaction to be slower, lower nitric acid concentration has all advantages.

      Hi, in gold plated watches processing I did not find silver chloride to separate. In general, filtration helps.

    So those were gold plated? Not gold filled? I've always avoided plated jewelry. But if that is a yield from plated watches, wow.

      Hi, I have one more video where I show the marks of the cases so you can see it is gold plating 5-20 microns thick. Only for one of this pile of cases I think was filled. All other plated.

    Hello , How much time the disolving this watches in HCI+H2O2 solution ?
    And if i use this method how much will be the concentration of the Hidrogen peroxid 3% or 6%?
    thanks your answer.

    • @escrapchannel

      Hi, I never tried dissolving solid brass cases in hydrochloric acid and hydrogen peroxide, but if I try this I will pick 30% peroxide and periodically add it to the solution to keep reaction going. With 3 and 6 % peroxide the issue is that volumes become huge at certain point.

    • @escrapchannel
      @escrapchannel  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      My point is that in case of silver contacts cleaning from copper we deal with small amount of copper to dissolve. Watch cases are tens and hundreds of grams. For watch cases I always use nitric acid.

    I have question: 1 step.. ONLY PUT WATCHES to Nitric Acid? and wait about 2hours? nothing next? (heating?, next Acid?). TY

    • @escrapchannel
      @escrapchannel  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi, reaction of the nitric acid with brass is exothermic, so heating is not needed. Starts slowly but then speeds up.
      After dissolving 95% of the brass in the cases reaction slows down a lot, so it is good to remove the acid that worked out and put the gold foils into fresh nitric acid to quickly dissolve any remains of brass. No other acids needed.

    How gold recovery in one kg gold plated watch case or pins

    • @escrapchannel
      @escrapchannel  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, it really depends a lot. My yield of gold per kg material is between 30g and 0.2g. 30g I got from military USSR pins, and 0.2g from modern main board pins.

Изваждам ги, промивам и слагам отново в азотна. Ако реакцията рестартира бурно, значи има останал доста метал за разтваряне. Ако се появи съвсем слабо оцветяване, значи сме на финала.

      It was more or less a fair mixture with only one gold filled case marked also as plated (very strange mark), so 1.9% of total weight yield is fine. I’ve seen more and I’ve seen less. All depends on material :)
