Composting provides a way not only of reducing the amount of waste that needs to be disposed of, but also of converting it into a product that is useful for gardening, landscaping, or house plants.
Q. I want to know the uses and composition of Pickling Inhibitor used in the pre-galvanising process of cold rolled steel. A. Hello, Ishaq. Hydrochloric acid is used to remove rust and scale from steel. But hydrochloric acid will also attack and dissolve the steel itself. Pickling inhibitors are interfacially active compounds which bind to the steel as monomolecular layers, and shield it, reducing the attack on the steel.
Passivation only removes free iron contamination from the stainless steel surface. Pickling, on the other hand, removes surface iron contamination, heat tint and weld scale. After Pickling, it will produce a dull matt uniform grey finish on the metal that is the effect of chemical micro-etching.
