Abstract

The electropolishing behavior of commercially pure Ti was studied in sulfuric acid-ethanol electrolytes with a small amount of H₂O. The experimental results showed that commercially pure Ti could be electropolished well in the 3M H₂SO₄-ethanol electrolyte, while inadequately electropolished in 0.5 and 1M H₂SO₄-ethanol electrolytes. However, the brightening effect on the Ti surface could be clearly observed by the addition of a few volume percent of H₂O to the 0.5 and 1M H₂SO₄-ethanol electrolytes. The effect of a small amount of H₂O in the H₂SO₄-ethanol electrolytes on the electropolishing behavior of pure Ti was discussed.
