Effect of Tin Additions on the Anti-Tarnish Properties of Sterling Silver Alloy

Abstract:

Sterling alloy is widely used in the jewelry industry. Its anti-tarnish property is one of its most important characteristics. In this study, the effect of tin on the corrosion resistance, and tarnish resistance properties of sterling silver alloy were investigated quantized. The difference between anti-corrosion and anti-tarnish properties was investigated in this paper. The tarnish and corrosion resistance of sterling silver improved as tin content increased. However, there was a point at which increasing tin content further led to poor anti-tarnish properties, even though the alloy retained considerable anti-corrosive properties.
