All About Found Materials

The use of metal is an integral part of human development. Historical periods such as the Iron and Bronze Ages are called that because new technologies allowed people to use these metals to make tools, weapons, jewellery, and other items. Today, metals are all around us—from construction and machinery manufacturing to microscopic components in electronics and medical fields. Science is constantly searching for new ways to use the Earth’s elements more efficiently. Our team strives to extract these elements more effectively and return them to production from metal-containing waste.

Silver

Silver (Lat. Argentum) is a precious metal valued worldwide for its luxurious and aesthetically pleasing appearance, as well as its useful physicochemical properties. Silver is known as the best metal conductor of electricity and heat. Silver (chemical symbol Ag) has a melting point of 960.8°C and a boiling point of 2212°C. Due to its malleability and resistance to atmospheric oxidation, silver has been used since ancient times to make jewellery and coins.

Although silver, like gold, is well known as an investment metal, its uses extend far beyond the manufacture of investment bars and jewellery. In the electronics industry, silver is used in the manufacture of connectors and chips integrated into modern cameras, television monitors, computers, and similar devices. Due to its excellent electrical conductivity, this metal is used in some wires and various charging cables, as well as USB, HDMI, and similar types of electronic connectors. Small ammounts of silver can be found in household appliances such as microwave ovens, air conditioners, and washing machines.

Silver is also widely used in the medical industry. Silver ions are unique catalysts that help to effectively clean airborne bacteria. For anthyseptical reasons, various medical equipment and tools can be coated with a thin layer of silver.
