Etching agent acc. to HASSON
Etchant according to HASSON is characterized by its use in metallography and scientific laboratories. The product is especially suitable for the characterization of molybdenum and can also be used as a color etchant. Etching molybdenum enables the identification of microstructures, and an etching time of four minutes at room temperature is recommended. Prior to this, a wet grinding process is required as preparation.
The chemical composition of the etchant consists of ferric chloride and hydrochloric acid in aqueous alcoholic solution.
The chemical reactions are based on the mutual effects of the various ingredients, with ferric chloride and hydrochloric acid being the main etching substances. The two acids together lead to the etching reaction, while ethanol and water act as solvents. The combination of these chemicals allows efficient and uniform etching of molybdenum.
Using the HASSON etchant can produce varying results, depending on factors such as material composition and processing conditions. Typical results include revealing microstructures, identifying phases, and examining structural defects in molybdenum specimens.
In summary, HASSON etchant allows characterization of molybdenum structures.
