If you look into Niobium and Ferro-Niobium, one can anodize all colors of the rainbow using heat, chemical processes, or electrolysis to create the effect.

I used to go to an eyeglass factory that had a similar machine to deposit layers of coatings on eyeglasses so that they achieve a certain look and quality. Like mirrored lenses or anti reflective surfaces.
I know that those Titanium and Aluminium Nitrate coated spoons made with those industrial machines looks so nice in comparison with your homemade spoon/fork of the beginning, however I appreciate very much the last by to be in some way a piece of art (unintentionally you appealed to your creativity to select what colour have each segment of the spoon), and I think that it's a very cool way to have an own collection of simple but unique tools that we use daily. Very good and interesting video as always. Greetings from Argentina. 😀👍
@@JakHart you have a good point! Really large objects like that really are hard to anodize and have it all turn out right and even. I agree that heat anodizing it would probably work out best. I've done a little experimenting with anodizing copper strips with heat and it actually worked out pretty well. I may try that with a solid steel knife that I have laying around. Would be neat to see how it does! Thanks for the suggestion!
@@JakHart It will still be quite difficult to get an even gradient with small forge or torch, unless you have a large forge that could fit your whole blade and be heated relatively evenly. nice enough result should be doable with some experience though
I will always note Whenever automation and manufacturing processes are company secrets, it's always because what the company is doing something rather inexpensive to do without any patient protecting them and they are scared of the general population figuring it out
That explains why my steel silverware looked rainbow-like after exposing it to fire, and the color faded out only after weeks of use and cleaning with abrasives. THANK YOU, THOISOI!
Fun thing, you'll see titanium coated quartz at a lot of gem and mineral shows, where it is advertised as "rainbow" quartz, and many vendors will insist that it forms naturally. It's fun to haggle them down from their extremely high marked prices down to only a few dollars before just walking away :D
The official term for this type of quartz is called "Aura Quartz", and many different metals can be used. It requires vaporizing metals in a vacuum, it's not easy or cheap. I do remember another science CZcamsr making said machine recently, though I cannot recall who it was. Maybe it was Steve Mould, but don't quote me on that. EDIT: it is the most recent video from The Thought Emporium.
You might be able to achieve nm level coatings with laser deposition. Purge a chamber with nitrogen and fire a high energy pulsed laser at a target (a titanium aluminum alloy). The target turns to plasma and expands. It should then combine with nitrogen and be able to coat a substrate (spoon).
Hey quick thing, I’ve done some small amount of anodization of titanium I’ve found if you max the voltage and quickly dip or pull your piece out of solution you can get a mush smoother cleaner rainbow
I used to know a business owner who used to make colorful stainless steel sculptures in his off time. In stead of anodizing the metal he would season it. His stainless steel was brushed with assorted greases and oils before having a high temperature blowtorch taken to them. The trace metals in the oil bounded itself into the stainless steel. Stainless steel normally dies not oxidize but he mixed some other chemical powder into the grease or oil that would cause an oxidation process. To this day, he never revealed what that secret powder was
People have said that they don't like the coatings as they wear off. The problem is people throw them in with other silverware, Titanium gauls very badly even though it is generally more durable and tougher than most metals you can run across. Its one of the main reasons why its not used more commonly in things like engines. That's why Titanium that is used in engines have to have a special coating on each part outside of still needing oil. Even aluminum does not need this type of coating. Back to the spoon! The titanium coating is very durable just don't throw it around like an average stainless steel silverware. Even stainless steel gets scratched or dinged and will lose its finish but the titanium wears less but it is a coating and not the entire spoon is titanium. Sometimes if you get chipping then the ones that plated it did not take enough of a process of cleaning to get a good deep adhesion layer. That's why cheap is not ideal for plated items for durability. But you could get lucky with cheap as maybe a batch does get the good layers it needs to hold up. Its quality control and finish of each process.
There used to be a company back in the day (Goldtech or something) that used to be able to coat Aluminium chainrings on bicycles increasing their lifespan by 3 times. I think the process was to vaporise gold and titanium in a plasma and electrically coat the item in a similar way to anodising. I always wondered about it and wanted to know more, I think this looks very similar.
I wonder if someone could answer this. When you see fabricated metal items (often aluminium) that come in a range of colours, like carabiner clips for example, there is some process, which isn't powder coating or any paint, that is done to achieve these colours. Could someone briefly explain how this is done?
@SplatterShotJr m Thanks I'l look it up. I have been wondering about it for 20 years! I was watching a Discovery doc, but had to go out - no problems, I'l watch the repeat later. There was no repeat! *Ever.*
Yes, anodizing. Clean the alluminum, soak it in the correct acid so it will accept the choice dye, then soak in the dye until its rich enough in color for your liking. Theres a 2nd type of anodizing that hardens the surface also.
About 4 seconds into the sponsor segment I already knew I'm going to buy one... I've been wanting a polimaster dosimeter for a decade now.. I'm so excited!
Vostok adopted the TiN plating for its Komandirskie range of budget watches giving it a burnished golden or brassed look on the case, they even released a rainbow TiN Amphibia limited edition.
Thought emporium has a video of a homemade sputterer, might be worth checking out. A collaboration with you him Nile red and nurdrage would be an awesome video.
People around & of age, saw little of anything in new tech . Colour TV had not long started broadcast & the first test transmission in the early 1960's was B&W, and full of 'noise' as the future in laws, rushed out to get one only to find themselves right on the edge. Long distance jets = yes - domestic = no. Steam trains, ran along with desil & electric. Cars were expensive - starting at $ nz 7,500.00 & up past $100,000.,00 , and all of them had 3 years warranty or 15,000 miles . Transistor radios were about, no disc man or walk man & our rivers weren't as dirty as now. Even in the USA, mid 70's, there wasn't a large amount of high tech, though colour TV was available & cars were cheaper & cheaper to run. No double deck buses except London, that I recall & only major city's with underground networks, & the British were trying to get the tilting trains perfected, but management were impatient, sold it off to Italy & there's now Pendolino Trains running at higher speeds on standard tracks. Namaste 🙏
I almost have a complete set of these rainbow iridescent spoons, as well as the forks and butter knives! I consider my set complete once I have five of each. I often end up getting the last ones on the shelves, when I look. I'm almost there!
Halfway through the video right now, bit I'm honestly surprised you haven't touched on heat anodizing. It's easier (except for copper) and a lot safer. I do it all of the time with titanium and steel, and every now and again, I try with copper. It's much trickier to control the temperature with copper. All you need is a sufficient torch, you know, the cheap ones you can get at gas stations.
Just blue the steel under heat, you get a similar effect through surface oxidation including rainbow from straw through purple, blue, green and fading to grey. The purple and blue can be quite intense.
@@TheExplosiveGuy The COATING is titanium, the spoon is steel, listen to the video @5:40, it is not anodized but uses gaseous vapor deposition in a vacuum chamber. I said it oxidizes, there is more than one path to thin film colorization.
You can also make a video about refractory materials such as hafnium carbide (HfC) - special materials with exceptional physical and/or chemical resistance.
I saw some spoons forks and knives at my local Walmart that's rainbow some gold and some black and all are 2.00 dollars each I bought me 2 rainbow spoons and the effect is a little different than his spoon the inside cup part area is gold color while the back is a purple magenta color the handle is green on the edges one side blue one side gold color and I noticed it didn't scratch up either as easy. I might go back and get some black spoons or gold ones. They have a full dinnerware set for 22.00 dollars for rainbow but the gold was 30.00 dollars, they didn't have the black in the set. So I just buy a couple of them over time I don't need the butter knives that always comes in sets. I did notice the black had some weight to them though. I also might get cutting knives like that or knife set rainbow. I even seen steam kettles rainbow like but I'm wondering if the heat of boiling water will effect the colors over time. I have always loved rainbows my whole life and not because of the nowadays abomination that goes with the rainbow but about God's promise.
I only have 2 questions. Does it have to be 4 continuous hours in a vacuum, because I can't hold my breath that long? And do they make Adamantium cathodes? "0_o"
@11:00 Is the "Cathodic Arc Deposition" a similar process as the "Electron-Beam Physical Vapor Deposition" (Sputtering)?

Hey Thoisoi2 I noticed my chrome plated motorcycle exahst pipes had all these colors and more. The Colors would change depending on speed loads and temp and humidity. So I had my gas tank coated or electro plated with one layer of copper then nicel then chrome. Then using a torch I changed the colors of the tank from blue purplr red golden and even some green. Then coated it with clear coat. It looked very cool. However a titainium tank would be much better. Not in colors but hardness.
Does the RadiaCode work with iOS or Windows? I don’t have an android device :/ Edit: in case anyone is wondering, it does work on windows. And there are rumours about an iOS app.
Brilliant. A table set with the cutlery 🍴 would look quite nice, with care taken in crockery choice, and glass wares - can glass be coated in the various titaniums, to give off those rainbow hues ?
I have a rainbow Zippo. I predict it is made using electricity, heat and some sort of technique to apply said heat. Ok, electricity and titanium...I only knew heating up steel would color it. Learned something.
That why chopsticks are useful, they're cheap to make and universal to use for dish. I wonder why not many place adopted this tool? Making tools for eating usually are made out of metal pretty expensive stuff for commoners.
1min into the video my first guess is it's anodized at changing voltages for changing colors. Looks like it's aluminum or titanium or similar. Bismuth crystals are that color as well but that is not very durable.
