I have a sputtered Al layer, and want to know the etching rate in HCl at room temperature. All what I could find in literature were related with heated HCl bath, mainly 50 C.
You can find this kind of information in the big CRC handbook of metal etchants.

Else, you can catalyze and accelerate the etching reaction of Aluminum by adding copper sulfate with HCl (Caution: the reaction is highly exothermic).
Kind Regards.
Hi Jerome,
thank you for the answer and the nice source! I will check it immediately.
Regards
Probably difficult to get a reproducible value for sputtered Al, because it will depend on the surface (roughness/purity) of the layer.
