The method and acid mixture used for biting metal in etching. In lithography, it refers to the chemical mixture for desensitizing the plate or stone.
to produce as a pattern on a hard service by eating into the material's surface as with acid or a laser beam
Syövyttää, etsata Etsa(1) Etching is used with litho dampening water as low pH etches the aluminum and improves hydrophilicity of plate non-image area.(2) Etching was a way to produce gravure cylinders.
A process using a chemical bath (wet etch) or a plasma (dry etch) that removes unwanted substances from the wafer surface.
A process used in the manufacture of some types of crystal units. The etch process results in an improved surface condition and an increase in the frequency of a blank. The word "etch" is also used to describe the material used in the etch process, as well as the process itself.
To produce a textured finish on metal or glass by the corrosive action of an acid or other etchant.
Chemical removal of material, usually associated with defining conductor patterns on a circuit board.
In intaglio image creation, etched lines are the result of the corrosive biting (acid bath) of the exposed (i.e. not protected by "resist") areas of the plate. (Note that the Old English for "eaten" is "et").
roughening of a surface by chemical means
a process using either chemicals or sharp tools to make clear distinct lines or drawings on a hard surface such as metal or glass Don't try to etch a design on this metal, it's not a suitable surface. etching (n)
To roughen the surface of a metal by selective dissolution.
Treatment of a metal surface with an acid chemical to create an aesthetic finish.
Chemical removal of metal (copper) to achieve a desired circuit pattern.
is a chemical reactive process for selectively removing material on a silicon wafer during semiconductor manufacturing.
To attack the glass surface with a strong chemical agent, usually hydrofluoric acid. Usually used in decorating glass.
To remove or dissolve surface contamination, work-damaged material (polishing), and to control thickness by chemical action with strong acid and alkaline compounds.
The process of chemically treating a material for corrosion resistance and adhesion of a primer, or to remove rust.
A rough, dull mark produced by acid eating away at a polished surface.
To alter the surface of glass with hydrofluoric acid or other caustic agents. Unintentional permanent etching of glass may occur from alkali and other runoff from surrounding building materials.
The process of rendering a design on a hard surface (such as glass) by corroding its surface with acid. This term is often used to describe the filing process used to remove the surface shine from natural nails in preparation for a nail enhancement service. 'Etching' is usually accomplished by using a heavy grit file to remove the surface shine, and to disrupt the nail plate layers. Today's products do not require the use of this damaging method to ensure adhesion.
A process of chemical reactions or physical removal to rid the wafer of excess materials.
A roughened surface produced by chemical, electrochemical or mechanical means. To dissolve unevenly a part of the surface of a material to highlight microstructure in metallography.
A chemically caused change on the outside of a smooth floor surface which causes the floor to be pitted or rough.
The process of producing an image on a plate by the use of acid.
A chemically caused change on the outside of a smooth floor surface which makes the floor texture rough and thereby improving the adhesion of floor finish.
A process for removing material in a specified area through a chemical reaction.
Removal of specific material (such as portions of a given layer) through a chemical reaction.
The process of using chemicals to carve an image into metal, glass or film.
To produce an image on a printing plate by chemical or electrolytic action.
The art of producing designs on metal or glass by the use of corrosive action of an acid. The use of acid to cut lines into metal or remove the surface of concrete.
Surface Preparation by chemical means to improve the adhesion of coatings.
An intaglio process in which an image is cut through an acid-resistant ground applied to a metal plate. Acid is used to bite this image into the plate.
To use chemicals to carve an image into metal, glass or film.
A process crystal manufacturers use to improve the surface condition of a crystal and to increase the frequency of a blank. The word "etch" is used to describe the material used in the etch process, as well as the process itself.
To make a drawing on metal, glass, etc. by coating the surface with wax and let acid eat into the parts laid bare with a special needle.
Logo, brand name, and product information that appears on glass envelope of lamp.
design on metal, glass, etc. using wax or film created by revealing specific areas with a special needle or tool and applying an etching material for a frosted appearance
To use acid to dissolve any non-printing portion of a printing plate.
To remove metal by chemical or electrochemical means in order to produce an image on a printing Plate.
