Tarnish resistance of silver reinforced with carbon material to artificial sweat and hydrogen sulfide

Abstract

Due to its immense popularity, silver jewelry has undergone continual development, it an intriguing product. The most significant issue with silver jewelry is the tarnish of the silver metal's surface. Therefore, using a coin making technique, the study team evaluated the properties of silver metal reinforced by carbon materials. To evaluate the silver's to sweat and hydrogen sulfide tarnishing. Effects of adding carbon to samples after performing an artificial sweat test. It was discovered that the use of highly scattered carbon improved the ability to remove tarnish from fake sweat because it reduced the surface area of the silver (Ag) dispersion. to reduce silver chloride formation, It is evident that group 1 produces the best outcomes. The more functional group the groups, the better the distribution. Effects of samples with carbon after testing for hydrogen sulfide. It has been discovered that adding carbon materials in reducing tarnish from hydrogen sulfide better. Since carbon (C) helps from reaction with sulfur (S) rather than silver (Ag) when carbon material is added, the tarnish brought on by silver sulfide (Ag2S) is reduced.
