Electropolish Solution

Electropolish

Electropolishing is an electrochemical finishing procedure that removes a small material coating from a metal item, usually stainless steel or
comparable alloys. The process produces a gleaming, smooth, and ultra-
clean surface. Electropolishing, also known as electrochemical polishing, anodic polishing, or electrolytic polishing, is particularly useful for polishing and deburring delicate or complicated geometries.

It is easy to mistake the procedure with passivation; however, electropolishing is not the same as passivation. Both are chemical processes that are not mechanical, but only electropolishing uses electricity. Both passivation and electropolishing are processes intended to improve corrosion resistance.

Types Of Electropolishing Services We Offer

Stainless Steel Electropolishing

Electropolishing stainless steel is a “reverse plating” process that uses an electrochemical solution to remove the outer skin of a metal part. By stripping away a uniform layer of surface material, our process also removes embedded contaminants, heat tint and oxide scale, burrs, micro-cracks, pits, and other surface imperfections that can compromise the performance and longevity of a part.

Aluminum Steel Electropolishing

Our aluminum steel electropolishing process will greatly reduce the microroughness of aluminum surfaces, resulting in a high gloss even at low mass losses. Electropolishing aluminum is a metal-removing anodic process based on phosphoric acid and sulfuric acid in an electrolyte.

Copper Steel Electropolishing

Our electropolishing services can apply for copper alloys as well. This the process ensures removal of tarnishing and roughness on copper’s surface, imparting a smooth and bright surface at suitable conditions.

Titanium Steel Electropolishing

Our electropolishing process ensures that the titanium parts last and perform better. Titanium’s natural resistance to corrosion, high temperatures, high tensile strength, and biocompatibility make it a viable and renowned alloy in aerospace, medical and marine applications. This is why we make sure to improve performance through electropolishing while maintaining the properties that make this alloy unique.

Nickel Alloy Electropolishing

Our electropolishing services also include Nickel Alloys. Our process ensures nickel parts are left with a bright and smooth finish that’s free from any form of imperfections on the material’s surface and edges. As with our other electropolishing services, we also ensure enhanced corrosion resistance and increased longevity.

Hastelloy Alloy Electropolishing

Many organizations frequently use Hastelloy as a critical nuclear and chemical equipment component. This demands very careful manufacturing to eliminate any form of surface imperfections. Our electropolishing service is guaranteed to remove a controlled, uniform layer of surface material from any Hastelloy part that ensures a smooth and bright surface with no imperfections.
