Hi, in todays video i want to try out my hho generator and see if i can make a sintetic ruby,
i recently also saw ElementalMaker try in this experiment!
and was a lot of fun!
so today the idea is to take some tin foil, and make some aluminum oxide.
mix it than with chromium oxide.
and melt the powder uscing a clever sistem like a syringe and a nidle.
ejoy and have fun!
use safety mask, glases and gloves!

Please use H2 and O. flame and alumina refractory crucible. I did that many years ago during my master's degree program. The quality of the resulting poly crystalline ruby was pretty good.

[@mnomadvfx]

Seems like any kind of chemical flame will only introduce contaminants into the crystal structure such as the bubbles often found in Verneuil produced stones. Is it possible to use a high strength laser to melt the reactants together? Especially if this could be done in a vacuum chamber reducing the likelihood of oxidation.

[@noodlelynoodle.]

@@mnomadvfx I would imagine so since it can be done using microwaves to create plasma to melt it or arc welders with a graphite electrode and strong enough lasers get well above the needed temperatures it's just about if it's economically viable more than anything for the power needed to achieve it with lasers just like nuclear fusion, like we can sustained fusion going with lasers but it takes more power to get it going than it produces currently

[@curtisoliver1006]

@@mnomadvfx I have suceeded with making rubies and other synthetics with CO2 lasers. The pros of that method is you can reach temperatures of over 3000C with short exposure times. Meaning you can very quickly produce small blobs of rubies and other synthetics. The temperatue limit is dependent on the amount of energy you can input vs the dissipation of the heat. Higher power CO2's would drive the temperature up further and allow a larger heatzone. The drawbacks are that the heating is incredibly localised. This can be combatted by defocusing the laser increasing the beam cross section therefore lowering the intensity. But there will be a laser power threshold that has to be met. And it is actually possible to burn yourself a crater into your synthetics if the exposure is too intense. For rubies in particular, this is also dependent on the amount of chromium oxide used too as this has a very higher melting point of near 3000C vs the 2000C needed for aluminium oxide. You also will get stubborn aluminium oxide stuck to the rubies. Most rubies created are polycrystalline and low quality. For example they will have some structural weaknesses due to internal cracking. This is likely caused by sudden thermal changes. If there was a way to ease off the laser power to slow down the cooling however this would be combatted. But I was using a regular laser cutter. One method I did try was a dynamic rather than static exposure to the powder. I also tried making an almost aluminium reflection chamber like crucible. One benefit is you can cause some coalescence and grow your rubies by heating and collapsing surrounding powder into the molten ruby. If the exposure remains you can get this to form a larger more uniform sphere or spheroid. 95% of the time the rubies will be opaque or low opacity. However I have managed in making a couple now that have some translucency.

[@michaelmichalski4588]

I would have just ordered sone of those motors from Amazon or Aliexpress, but I guess if you have sex toys laying around to cannibalize...

[@michaelmichalski4588]

What about making a crucible wrapped in a coil. Heat the sample with an engraving laser. The hope is that if you can heat a tiny spot to the point it melts, then it will conduct and start absorbing energy from the coil that you supply with an ac current. A similar idea would be to drill a tiny hole in the top of the microwave. Shine the laser into the crucible and again, hopefully you can get a tiny bit of consulting alumina that will start absorbing microwaves. Same idea as melting glass in the microwave.

It would also allow for slower cooling, less or even no cracking! Very kewl experiment! Love it & subscribed! You might see if there's a jeweler that could faucet some of these for you! Try a gem & rock club, lapidary club or even a jewelry store that has a gemologist there. Adding a bit of titanium & iron to the mix can make sapphires. It would be great to find a mix that can give that really pretty blue! TY for sharing! You might want to melt some quartz infused with copper or gold... that can make a really pretty red swirl through an optically clear quartz stone, if done correctly. Beautiful stuff!

Technically speaking, this is ruby glass. It holds a lot of the properties of ruby, but the crystal structure is, well, not there because of how quickly it cools. In labs, the ruby is cooled, under pressure, very slowly to produce a crystal structure identical to naturally occurring. Takes about 8 months. Still, fused rubies, like this, are pretty cool.

Use a lens from a rear projection t.v. and the Sun. Focus the Sun's rays through the lens onto something that can handle high heat. this method will not blow any material around.

[@mwilson14]

It also won't get hot enough since the light color of the oxides reflects most of the heat away. You need over 2070 degrees Celsius to fuse the oxide feed material. However you need approximately 2200 degrees Celsius to be sufficient to fuse it into a legit single solid crystal. However, again, you need approximately 3000 Celsius at minimum to properly make flame fusion / Verneuil process rubies. The oxide feed material should be molten by the time it lands on the pedestal or platform and it is at this point the growing boule should be in contact with the 2200 degree Celsius portion of the flame. It needs to be molten and fluid enough to crystallize with the growing lattice below. This is done to eliminate the evolution of gasses as the oxides boil, as doing will solidify into a solid froth no better than iron thermite slag which is too corundum.

[@TheRainHarvester]

Matthew Wilson , what if he used a kiln to contain the heat (Except for the top where the magnified sun enters)? Would that allow the temp to rise enough?

[@mwilson14]

@@TheRainHarvester I don't think it would only because of how quickly the heat rise and escape. The convection generated by the expanding hot air leaving the confines of the kiln would pull in the colder outside air into the chamber. Maybe there would be some possible scenario using some form of high temp quartz glass, or white sapphire glass so the sun rays could get inside, but I would imagine it still to be too impractical and expensive. As a thought experiment, I would imagine going the extra mile and adding a purified layer of carbon on top of the ruby feedstock to initially absorb more heat, while also filling the chamber full of argon so that CO2 isn't instantly generated. We're only trying to see if fusing the chromium oxide doped alumina is at all possible under this approach, so quality is of no concern. We just want to see some red or pink coloration. The carbon can be burned off after the fusion attempt. The problem which I foresee would be the thermal conductivity of the kiln floor and the walls of the kiln. The Fresnel lense from the projection TV would have to be used tracking the sun while directing the beam of focused light into the kiln chamber. I was going to attempt working out the math, but I have to leave as my ride is here at the office. Here is a link that you'll need to replace the spaces with dots. I'll work on it later myself just for the sake of learning something new. A final note for now is that it may actually be possible, but many obstacles need to be overcome to achieve this feat. If you have the resources then I say go for it. I tend to overthink things too, so there's that as well. I may sound somewhat discouraging in the above paragraphs, but really, there is always something to learn and I encourage you or anyone else to explore such an experiment. I'll try to get back to this post in the near future to follow up.

@@Bob3519 From what I understand of electric induction heating it mostly works with iron based alloys. Sapphire contains a small amount of iron oxide, so who knows? Ruby can even have a small amount of iron oxide contamination but I don't know to the extent which still allows pigeon blood red, nor do I know how it might effect clarity. I do have ruby samples which I created using thermite as my heat source, and it certainly has tons of iron contamination. Hmmm.

Would this kind of ruby have the value as a natural ruby or is it like industrial diamonds not worth anything

[@smiledogjgp]

It's certainly not as valuable as natural ruby, and these stones are absolutely teeming with imperfections just due to water in the mixure of the alumina alone, not to mention impurities in the tinfoil (Tinfoil is pretty impure! They alloy it to make it great for wrapping food, but not much else), and iron impurities in the HCl. These stones would be even less valuable than most manmade stones just because they are not very well made. It's more expensive to make these rubies with the components shown than to sell the rubies one would make. These are corrundum and could certainly be crushed into useful abrasive powders, but there really isn't much more use to them.

[@darkwolfnova344]

Rulof, all you need to do is turn that graphite thing over. Its a bowl, put the powder in the bowl and then partially cover it with a piece of flat glass to prevent the powder from blowing away.

[@stephenjacks8196]

The boule technique uses oxy-hydrogen and dates to the 70s. New synthesis for ruby is crystalization from molten lead oxide. So good, gem industry requires UV dye to tell from natural ruby.

[@radostin_pavlov]

First of all, these pink chunks are not rubby crystals but very fine chromium-doped alumina polycristalline melt. Making synthetic ruby crystals that large requires much more than dropping the raw material mixture on top of a refractory and melting it with a torch. Second, chromium(III) oxide is not a highly toxic nor corrosive substance, and although touching it withought wearing gloves is not recommendable, it is much less dangerous than manipulating concentrated hydrochloric acid like that. Definitely, this video makes chemistry appear like MasterChef, while it is not instructive at all as to crystal synthesis.

[@johnsherfey3675]

While I debate the first part because Ruby's are just dropped al2o3 and if the end result is roughly the same who's to notice. The rest makes sense.

[@dangillick9247]

Whilst I agree that this is just chromium-doped alumina poly-crystalline melt, it really does not take much more to convert it to a single crystal structure. It can be done solid-state even. One would simply have to make un-doped poly-crystalline alumina, putting both in a furnace and heating them to about 3/4 of the melting point of poly-crystalline alumina for a long enough period of time, depending on the size of your sample, you will get a single crystal formation out of the furnace.

Don't you get aluminiun chloride? Or is it converted by the base into hydroxide? I don't think that this would work using only sodium bicarbonate🤔 I coul imagine using potassiumhydroxide. But then you wouldn't even need the acid...

[@ElementalMaker]

You could try the last part of that again only with the powder inside the carbon bowl on a stand with a high temp torch under it to see if you get anything larger.

[@Thesilverchampagne]

What if we directly heat the powder without passing through syringe

[@jtownelive9859]

no the sex toy syringe is what makes it a ruby, my dear.

[@taboosaboo]

If You add caulking to Your tweezers, for better grip. (Good to maybe 200C). Thank You for sharing Your video.

[@mray8519]

Oh fuck yeah. We’ll get busy cooking up a batch of rubies the size of hen’s eggs, then maybe some baseball sized blue diamonds, then after lunch some emeralds.
