Abstract
High temperature diffusion is used to change the color and the transparency of the sapphire by adding different auxiliary agents. Experiments prove that the color and transparency are improved by adding Al2O3, Na2B4O7, Na2CO3, MgSO4·7H2O at 1 500 ℃. Acid can be used to accelerate reaction in the sapphire of Shandong. XRF, UV VIS and FT IR are used to test the sapphire before and after improved experiments, and the reason of the change of color and transparency is analyzed.
