GOLD POTASSIUM CYANIDE (G.P.C.)
[EIRI/EDPR/1435] J.C. 214
INTRODUCTION
Gold is normally electro deposited from a solution containing essentially a double cyanide of Gold and an alkali metal, additional alkali cyanide (free cyanide) and other alkaline compounds. This solution is usually produced from gold potassium cyanide or sometimes from gold cyanide or gold potassium cyanide. For electro-plating process anodes used are usually that stainless steel (alkaline process), platinized titanium or carbon (acid process) or gold (acid and alkaline process).
In recent year the use of gold plating for industrial purposes has increased. Normally gold plating is used as a decorative finish.
The chemical/Engineering application of gold potassium cyanide for electroplating such items as automobile parts, watches aircrafts and allied industries, electronics application.
Occurrence of Gold:-
Gold occurs native either scattered in sand and gravel (placer gold) or mixed intimately in quartz (vim gold) as in kolar field near Bangalore. It is also present in very small quantities in lead and copper sulphide ores. Lumps of gold of all size, varying from that of a small pebble to a mass weighing over a hundred pounds have been found. It also occurs to a small extent in combined state. The mineral sylvanite found in colorado (USA) contains a telluride of silver and gold. [(Au, Ag)Te2].
South Africa mines account for nearly half of the total world production of gold. The United State of America comes next with a production of only 10 percent. The other gold producing countries in the decreasing order are: Canada, Australia, Mexico, India, Russia and Japan.
Gold Potassium Cyanide GPC For Plating 1 gram
GPC is an abbreviation of the Gold Potassium Cyanide, which has the chemical formula K(Au(CN)2) the gold content. 68.3% by weight. It is a white crystal. These products are used in industries such as electroplating, metal plating, coating of manufacturing imitation jewelry manufacturing industry. The electron e, with gold production of electricity etc.
How Used ?.
The GPC is mixed with liquid coating. There are many types of liquid coating solution. Such as liquid coating 24 K gold plating, liquid coating 18 K Plating, liquid coating 14 K plating, liquid coating Pink Gold plating, liquid coating Red Gold plating, liquid coating Champain Gold plating, liquid coating platinum plating etc.
GPC mixed in the tank plating solution. For its work to polish the surface smooth and clean and no grease or dust. Then nickel plating to the first and washed with water. Then the pieces are dipped in a bucket of gold plating.
For micron plating is the thickness of the plate. The measurement of time is spent in a micron-plated steel is higher.
