Abstract

Electropolishing is the electrolytic removal of metal in a highly ionic solution by means of an electrical potential and current. It is normally used to remove a very thin layer of material on the surface of a metal part or component. Electropolishing is able to enhance the material properties of a workpiece and to change its physical dimensions. Also, It is suitable for the polishing of both complex shapes and hardened materials, which are difficult to machine mechanically. therefore, the aim of the present study is to investigate the characteristic of Electropolishing A12024 in terms of current density, polishing time and electrode gap, etc.
