Re: [MW:3743] Re: Pickling and Passivation


Visit the AvestaPolarit welding website and download the free 20 page Pickling Handbook (dont worry; it also includes Passivation & Post cleaning). You will have no questions unanswered.

Please respond to materials-welding







How can i ensure that there's no residual acid on the surface? Visual
inspection?
What's the best method of cleaning post passivation?

Most part of procedures are based on ASTM A-380, but this standard
doesn't give us details about the "accept criteria" of passivation.
