elektrolissipinnolla

Elektrolissipinnolla refers to a surface that has undergone electrolytic polishing. This electrochemical process smooths and brightens metal surfaces by removing a microscopic layer of material. The workpiece is immersed in an electrolytic bath, acting as the anode, while a cathode is also present. When an electric current is applied, metal ions are dissolved from the workpiece's high points, while the low points receive a finer deposit of metal ions, effectively leveling the surface.

The result of elektrolissipinnolla is a highly reflective and exceptionally smooth finish, free from microscopic imperfections, tool marks, and surface irregularities. This process is commonly applied to stainless steel, brass, copper, aluminum, and other metals. Its applications are diverse, including decorative finishes for jewelry and automotive parts, as well as functional improvements for components in the medical, aerospace, and food processing industries. The improved surface finish from elektrolissipinnolla can enhance corrosion resistance, reduce friction, and improve cleanability by eliminating areas where contaminants could accumulate. The specific electrolyte composition and process parameters are critical to achieving the desired outcome for different metals and applications.
