Tritium Watches How Did They Infuse Tritium In Old Watch Dials And Hands?

How did they infuse tritium in old watch dials and hands? - tritium watches

Tritium is a gas, tritium and new hits, there is a tube with a tritium-coated inside with a phosphor, the radiation beams from tritium filled.

However, old pieces, the painting itself contains tritium. How so? I think it would be relatively easy because they do not want the advanced technology that is very expensive wont to do. They knew not to go so far as in 1900, is still too early, I think.

Radium paint was used to illuminate the clockwise direction in the past, but was replaced with tritium illumination. Surprisingly, tritium is safer.

Here's a picture of a clock on the basis of tritium is

Here is an article about the lighting of tritium is

The article describes the process pipes with tritium gas light.

This article describes the painting on tritium basis. and how --

Tritium is hydrogen, and may refer to other compounds in the same manner appropriate to ensure that hydrogen can) (without the radioactivity.

In many (perhaps most) applications, which are a small glass vial, which is coated with phosphor and filled with tritium to illuminate.

Tritium is a beta emitter, and not very dangerous at all - unless you have a lot from him, then there is the risk that the U.S. government is, but (that's another story).

The radio was also used and is more dangerous for people working with her, but the makers of the clock, your granite dangerous.

Do not use tritium, the radio used. Watch from this period are for collectors, but dangerous.

Radio, yes, no tritium
