1. Why does gold turn white?
Gold, commonly known as gold, is symbolized by Au, a metal with a yellow luster. Gold has good physical properties, stable chemical properties, high degree of ductility and a small amount of rareness. Generally, people think that the nature of gold is very stable, but nowadays people are getting more and more cosmetics and daily chemicals, and some cosmetics contain Traces of mercury, when you use cosmetics, you accidentally bump into gold jewelry, which will turn white and produce "gold and mercury containing gold."
In addition, if someone wears a gold ring on one finger of the same hand and a platinum ring on the adjacent finger, it is easy to cause the gold ring and the platinum ring to rub each other due to the frequent movement of the finger, thus making the gold The surface of the jewelry is partially covered with platinum and white. In this case, it cannot be heated by the gasoline spray wheel to make it disappear, because the melting point of platinum is several hundred times higher than the melting point of gold. When the gold melts the platinum, the platinum is still "not allowed to move." For such a white gold jewellery, you can use an agate knife to plan the light, or you can use a thick cloth (such as canvas) to rub hard, so that the gold can be restored.
2. Why does gold turn black?
Similar to this, some cosmetics or hair dyes contain trace amounts of lead, and gold encounters black lead. For the above two kinds of gold jewellery which has turned white and black, it can be heat treated with the gasoline spray wheel for jewellery processing, because the melting point of mercury and lead is very low, and it will volatilize during the heat treatment of the spray wheel, so that the gold jewellery will be restored. face. Of course, it is best not to wear gold jewelry when applying cosmetics or dyeing hair to avoid future problems.
The discoloration or fading of gold jewelry is closely related to the sweat of the human body. 99% of human sweat is water, and about 1% is waste and harmful substances in the human body, such as chlorinated substances, lactic acid, urea ammonia and the like. When these materials come into contact with silver and copper in gold jewellery, they chemically react to produce silver chloride and copper sulphide, and exhibit a deep black chemical salt. These chemical salts often fall from gold jewelry, contaminating the wearer's skin, leaving a very noticeable black stain on the skin. On the skin where the jewelry is worn, it will give the color of the cosmetics containing chemical substances and the gold jewelry that is most afraid of chemical substances. Some cosmetics also contain some fine hard particles, which can form another type of dirt, thus wearing gold jewelry.
For example, gold and silver jewelry worn by medical workers is most likely to change color due to the surrounding environment. In the case of the above-mentioned fading, the consumer can let the merchant burn the gold jewellery at a high temperature, and if it is a full gold, it should be able to restore the primary color.

Why do gold jewelry gold bars purchased in jewelry stores have yellow-brown spots? Because in the process of jewelry making, the iron scraps left by the iron processing tools are formed by moisture, which is not a quality problem.

Some cosmetics also contain some fine hard particles, which can form another type of dirt, thus consuming gold jewelry. The factors of the geographical environment may also make the gold jewelry lose its bright color. For example, in a dry area, the air contains more fine dust. When it is contaminated on the human body, it will form a kind of “human sandpaperâ€, which can rid the gold jewelry with extremely fine debris and local black stains. It is worth mentioning that the talcum powder or moisturizer also contains similar particles, which will also eclipse the gold jewelry as mentioned above.
