How to dissolve aluminium but not alumina
August 8, 2011
Dear sir/madam
I need to find a suitable solvent that can dissolve aluminium but does not dissolve alumina coating on it. I had grown a textured alumina coating on an aluminium substrate and I need to remove aluminium substrate.
best regards,
