Aluminium Photo Etching

Aluminium Photo Etching

Here at Qualitetch we offer a quality service for etching Aluminium. The process of chemical etching with Aluminium is a specialist process and we have many years of experience etching this metal.

This is due to the fact that aluminium can be difficult to etch correctly if you do not have the correct process controls in place, which can lead to poor edges and a rough finished profile. Qualitetch have developed a process with our chemistry engineers to ensure that only the best quality etchant is used in our process to give the best possible results to your metal components.

The reason this metal can be difficult to etch is that aluminium is exothermic, meaning that it creates heat and gases on the surface of the metal as it is being chemically etched, which causes the aluminium to blow outwards and smut with carbon; roughening the surface.

Molybdenum Etching

Molybdenum Etching

Molybdenum is a diverse material used across manufacturing industries.

Molybdenum is a material popular in the manufacturing industry thanks to its many uses and benefits it holds.

Chemically etching molybdenum is ideal for use in many industry sectors including the medical, aerospace, defence, marine and telecommunications industries, due to it's ductility and high corrosion resistant properties, and has one of the highest melting points of all the pure elements, and photo etching is an easy way to manufacture sheet Molybdenum.

Chemical etching with molybdenum or with one of it's nickel based alloy derivatives such as Hastelloy, is useful because of the metal’s high melting point and low propensity for thermal expansion. This makes it perfectly suited for parts that encounter particularly high temperatures.
