History of the discovery of copper-nickel alloys
Ancient China
Copper-nickel alloys were originally invented in China nearly 3,000 years ago. In the 13th century, jewelry made from these alloys made its way to Europe. "Chinese silver," as the new metal was dubbed, became more expensive than jewelry made of real silver. Famous alchemists in Europe tried to unravel the mystery of the Chinese alloy;. They were able to establish that the alloy's components were copper, nickel and zinc. But they never succeeded in producing it industrially.
Modern Europe
Only at the end of the 18th century did German chemists again try to discover the secret of "Chinese silver." Saxon engineers were finally able to obtain prototypes. They called the resulting alloy nesilber, that is, new silver.
