I have welded AA1050 and AA8011 and now I want to analyze the microstructure of the joint. What chemicals can I use for electrolytic etching?
A list of chemical and electrolytic etching
can be found in:
Etchant Database https://database.metallographic.com/pace-etchant.php https://www.metallographic.com/Etchants/Etchants.htm https://www.metallographic.com/Metallographic-Etchants/Metallography-Aluminum-etchants.htm
try this
Electropolishing of Al and Al alloys in AlCl 3 /trimethylamine hydrochloride ionic liquid
I would try electrolytic etching with Barker's reagent (2% HBF4) using 20 V DC for 1-3 minutes. Use stainless steel cathode and keep sample as anode. The microstructure should be viewed using polarized light in an optical microscope.
