Electropolishing of Titanium in Perchloric Acid‐Acetic Acid Solution: I . Auger Electron Spectroscopy Study of Anodic Films
Source abstract
Abstract
Anodic films on titanium formed in a perchloric acid‐acetic acid electropolishing electrolyte were investigated by Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) depth profile analysis. Films formed in at different potentials were used as standards for determining sputter rate and stoichiometry. Obtained results show linear film growth to occur up to the onset of electropolishing when film thickness abruptly decreases and becomes independent of potential. The electropolishing film observed by AES contains chloride ions, the concentration of which exhibits a maximum at the metal‐film interface.
