Abstract
An efficient method of descaling metal sheets, such as titanium and stainless steel sheets, which includes carrying out anodic electrolysis using a metal sheet as the anode while sliding an abrasive member relatively to and on the surface of the metal sheet, is disclosed. The abrasive member essentially constitutes a fabric-like material made of synthetic resin.
Claims7
A method of descaling metal sheets which comprises carrying out anodic electrolysis using a metal sheet as the anode while sliding a nonconducting abrasive means relatively to and on the surface of said metal sheet in an electrolytic solution selected from the group consisting of hydrobromic, hydroiodic, hydrochloric, sulfuric or nitric acid or a mixture therof, and a neutral salt thereof and at an anodic current density above 4 A/dm.sup.2.
