Control of the pickling and passivation process

ETCHING AND PASSIVATION PROCESS CONTROL

Methods of surface inspection and passivation layer testing of stainless steels - Q&A

Krystian Idzikowski graduate of Silesian University of Technology - Faculty of Environmental Engineering and Power Engineering and Gdansk University of Technology - Faculty of Chemistry. Technical Director of Chimimeca Poland, he is associated with practical knowledge on a daily basis, pioneer of numerous technical solutions.

Webinar devoted to discussing methods and ways to test and control the surface of stainless steel and related chemical treatment processes such as:

• Magneticity check
• Checking the pH of the surface
• Visual inspection "under white light"
• Inspection under ultraviolet light
• Test with pure solvent
• Measurement of electrochemical potential
• "white rag" test
• Reagent tests (ferroxyl, copper sulfate, palladium)
• Etch bath controls
