Silver clay is made by grinding silver into very fine powder, mixing organic matter and firing in a rapid sintering pot. 1990 metallic clay originated in Japan.
Silver is a metal substance extracted directly from silver ore.
2, the texture is different
Silver clay is no different from the soil before drying. After drying, it is as easy to shape and carve as a brick, but fragile. Its characteristics are similar to those of soil.
The texture of silver has always been hard, and it can be made into any shape after melting at high temperature.
3. Different applications
Silver clay can be combined with jewelry, clay, copper and other materials. Strong plasticity, easier operation, so that creation has a broader creative space.
Silver is mainly used in the field of jewelry design, and is generally used in the production of jewelry.
Sources of silver clay and silver:
1, silver clay
The main components of silver clay are extremely fine 99.9% silver powder, organic binder and water. 1990 metallic clay originated in Japan.
Like soft clay, it can be molded by hand or mold before drying. After removing water, the hardness is like gypsum, and some carving and polishing can be done. Finally, sintering is needed. There are many ways of sintering. As long as the uniform temperature can reach 800℃, it can be sintered, and the organic glue will be burned out, leaving 99.9% silver.
2. Silver
The chemical symbol Ag of silver comes from the Latin name Argentum of silver, which means "light and brightness".
