Chemical polishing of large stainless steel flanges means the surface of flanges reaching bright smooth by regular dissolution. In the process of chemical polishing, the surface of large stainless steel flanges constantly form passivation oxide film and the oxidation film constantly dissolves, and the former is stronger than the latter. Due to micro inconsistencies of the large stainless steel flange’s surface, micro convex part of the surface micro dissolves first and the dissolution rate is greater than that of the concave part; besides, the dissolution and formation of membrane always occur at the same time, except that the rate is different. As a result, the surface roughness of large stainless steel flange is leveled, so as to obtain smooth and shining surface. Polishing can fill surface pores, scratches and other surface defects, thus improves fatigue resistance and corrosion resistance.


Electrochemical polishing is also called electrolytic polishing. In the process of electrolytic polishing, large stainless steel flange is considered as anode, insoluble metal is considered as the cathode, put the two poles into the electrolytic cell at the same time, power on direct current (dc) to produce selective anodic dissolution, thus increasing the surface brightness of large stainless steel flange, achieving mirror effect. Environmental protection formula of electric polishing liquid is without chromium anhydride and less dosage of phosphoric acid, reducing the pollution emissions. Formula without phosphoric acid and chromic anhydride solves the environmental problem of wastewater discharge, is a brand new type of pollution-free green electrochemical polishing agent, Its technological process such as processing conditions are the same as the original basically, polishing effect is also basically the same, having ensured the polishing quality. In the process of production, the surface of stainless steel is easy to appear some black oxide coating or micro inequality, influencing its use value. Only reprocessing such as mechanical polishing, chemical polishing and electrochemical polishing treatment is adopted to improve its own value, good results can be achieved.
