Why is Titanium so COLORFUL? - Making/Anodizing Titanium Chopsticks

Ғылым және технология

One of the many reasons titanium is an amazing material is because of the beautiful colors that can be formed on it's surface by either heating it up or using a bit of electricity. But titanium dioxide is just a white powder so how does having a thin layer of it on the metal lead to rainbow colors? The answer not only explains why titanium is colorful, but also why oil films and bubbles look iridescent as well!
Today we go through my process for making these stunning chopsticks, and then deep dive into the quantum mechanics that make those colors form.

    The vibrance of the color increases exponentially as the surface finish improves. Taking the time to polish to a mirror-finish with a jewelers rouge or very fine grits + metal polish is worth it. I've had good results using a small buffing wheel on a Dremel tool. Most lathes don't spin fast enough to effectively hand-sand a small diameter part.

    Cool project, though none of it would fit this channel, would be to make a gearbox to increase the speed, a planetary gearbox would probably be the best design for a lathe. The smaller bearings on the output would be better suited for higher speed, lower torque applications anyways. Basically, adapt the larger lathe to do the work a jeweler's lathe would; which would expand the amount of work you can do with a single lathe, when it would normally take two. Another set of cool projects, though more complex, but would add to the decorative bits of projects, would be adapting a standard lathe to a rose engine, straight line engine, geometric lathe, and other forms of jeweling. Which could work on both the original lathe, and the adaptation that makes it a jeweler's lathe; again, making one tool do the work of many, using removable attachments, which is money and space efficient.

    I've done this with both titanium and niobium. Niobium, in my experience, produces more vivid colors than titanium. The anodizing process is supposed to also work with zirconium, hafnium, tantalum, and vanadium. I'll be giving it a try as soon as I can get proper samples of these metals.

    Try using some nail polish to make patterns on the titanium and use electrolysis. Your pattern will be left unoxidized so make sure to anodize it to a complimentary color. Also working your way from low grit sandpaper to high grit will change how you perceive the colors. The green will become much more vibrant this way. Just some tips from a knife lover. ❤

    You should flatten them a bit. Then add some pikes on the front to make it easier to scoop the food rather than having to grasp it. Flattened Oral Retrieval and Keeping device. Let's call it a F.O.R.K. It would be much easier than using normal sticks. So much so that you could probably just use one at a time. :)

    May i ask if Its possible to make an difractiom metal? Can you cast gallium on a difraction grating and then get the rainbow effects on an metal?

    Probably not with gallium as it has a very high surface tension and is extremly sticky when molten.

    Tophat 1024 I would think the stickyness would be a good thing, since it would have to stick to the grooves of a diffraction grating to get the optical effects. The only problem I can think of is the expansion gallium experiences when it solidifies

    I was just thinking that gallium always sticks on glass so it might stick on the texture of the diffraction grating

    Iridescence also depends on the light source. Compact fluorescents and LED lamps have gaps in their spectra, so some of the iridescent colours won't show. It depends on the mix of phosphors in the light. A good rule of thumb is that the cheaper the light the fewer wavelengths emitted. They'll all have at least one red wavelength, one green wavelength and one blue wavelength, and they'll all emit those with a balance such that a white object will look white. But with the cheaper ones a yellow object (for example) may look a lot darker than it looks in daylight because that particular wavelength is not emitted by the lamp. So if you're using iridescent chopsticks, eat _al fresco_ for the best effect.
