Problems solved by technology

[0004] It can be seen that there is currently no universal electrolytic polishing solution and electrolytic corrosion method for the sample preparation of alloy EBSD. For the preparation of metal material EBSD samples, it is necessary to select the polishing solution experimentally, or to continuously adjust the electrolytic polishing parameters according to the polishing effect. Unnecessary manpower and material resources are added, and it is not conducive to the application and development of EBSD technology in material research, and most of the commonly used electrolytic polishing corrosion solutions are highly harmful nitric acid solutions and hydrofluoric acid solutions. It is very harmful to the relevant scientific research workers and the ecological environment

Abstract

The present invention provides a general electrolytic polishing method for preparing a metal material EBSD (electron backscatter diffraction) sample. The invention aims to improve the quality, efficiency and stability of the preparation of alloy EBSD samples. According to the method, an electrolytic sample is pre-treated at an earlier stage; an electrolytic polishing liquid containing only perchloric acid and absolute ethyl alcohol is prepared; and with a stainless steel sheet adopted as a cathode, the sample requiring electrolytic polishing adopted as an anode, and electrolytic polishing is performed under low temperature and weak current. The method has the advantages of simple equipment, high practicability and simple operation, high test repeatability, good sample preparation effect, great economic benefits and high popularization value. With the method adopted, the debugging of electrolytic polishing parameters is not required in a preparation process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of surface treatment of alloy materials, and in particular relates to an ultra-low temperature and weak current control metal material EBSD sample preparation method. Background technique [0002] Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) technology appeared in the late 1980s. With the continuous development of this technology, it has become an indispensable means of crystal structure, especially texture analysis in material science. Because its imaging depends on the orientation of the grains inside the material, it is also called orientation imaging microscopy. The microstructure map of orientation imaging can not only obtain the morphology, size and distribution information of grains, sub-grains and phases, but also obtain crystallographic information such as the crystal structure, grain orientation, and orientation difference of adjacent grains. , and using relevant processing software, you can also obtai...
