Title:
STEEL ETCHING METHOD, METHOD FOR PREPARING SAMPLE FOR OPTICAL MICROSCOPE OBSERVATION, STEEL ETCHING SOLUTION SET, AND ETCHING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/106124
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided are a steel etching method that enables a microstructure to be analyzed conveniently and with good precision, a method for preparing a sample for optical microscope observation, a steel etching solution set, and an etching device. Provided is a steel etching method that includes a first etching step for performing electrolytic etching of steel in a basic solution having a pH greater than 7.0, and a second etching step for performing etching in which the steel is brought into contact with an acidic solution having a pH less than 7.0 after the first etching step. The pH of the basic solution may be 13.0 or higher, and the basic solution may be a KOH aqueous solution. The electric current density during the electrolytic etching can be set to 0.5 A/cm2 or greater. The steel may have martensite and ferrite.
