Làm thế nào để biết vàng có thật không có axit?

How can you determine whether vàng is real—without using acid, scratching the surface, or damaging a valuable item? Traditional acid testing is no longer the only option. It’s not only tedious to perform but can also harm the metal’s surface. Hôm nay, more modern, an toàn hơn, and highly accurate methods are available to quickly verify the authenticity of gold without the need for acid. This article will walk you through these methods in detail and introduce professional solutions widely adopted across the industry.

Non-Acid Methods to Identify Real Gold

1. Visual Inspection

The first and most accessible method is to look for hallmarks or stamps. Genuine gold items typically carry a mark such as “18K,” “750,” or “24K,” indicating the karat value or fineness. Tuy nhiên, counterfeiters can fake these marks too. Vì thế, while it’s a good starting point, don’t rely solely on this.

2. Kiểm tra nam châm

Vàng không phải là từ tính. Try placing a strong magnet near the item—if it sticks or moves, the item likely contains iron or another magnetic metal. Still, this only reveals the presence of ferromagnetic metals and may not detect non-magnetic fakes.

3. Weight and Size Comparison

Real gold is denser than most fake materials. If you have a real gold item of the same size, compare their weight in your hand or on a digital scale. If the suspect piece feels unusually light, it might not be real gold.

4. Scratch and Sound Test

Pure gold is soft and does not make a “ringing” sound when dropped—it produces a dull thud. You can try lightly tapping it on a ceramic plate or listening to the sound it makes when dropped on a hard surface. Again, while this offers clues, it’s far from precise.

5. Use of XRF Máy kiểm tra vàng – The Most Reliable Method Without Acid

While the above methods are simple and inexpensive, they lack precision and can’t provide a definitive answer. If you’re serious about verifying gold authenticity—especially in professional or high-volume settings—the best solution is a thiết bị cầm tay or benchtop XRF (Huỳnh quang tia X) Máy phân tích vàng.
