Guide to Repairing Metal Polishing Defects: Solutions to Common Problems and Recommendations for Quality Materials and Tools

Product Applications, Science Classroom / By

Guide to Repairing Metal Polishing Defects: Solutions to Common Problems and Quality Materials and Tools Defects such as scratches, uneven roughness, oxidized spots, and lack of finish are commonly found in metal polishing and plastic polishing, which directly affects the quality of the products and the life of the molds. The article focuses on these problems and provides specific repair programs, such as the correct choice of polishing tools, control pressure and time, and timely cleaning of the surface. In addition, suitable polishing materials should be selected according to the characteristics of the mold to improve the polishing effect. Through continuous optimization of process and equipment updating, we can effectively reduce the production cost and improve the production efficiency to ensure the quality of the molds.

Comparison Chart of Grinding Polishing and Surface Roughness

Product Applications, Science Classroom / By

In product manufacturing, surface quality is a critical factor. Surface roughness refers to the tiny irregularities on a surface that affect functionality and durability, while smoothness describes the degree of surface flatness and light reflection. Roughness impacts gloss; the rougher the surface, the lower the gloss. To improve gloss, polishing materials are often used to remove minor irregularities, achieving a smoother surface. Understanding these concepts and effectively controlling roughness and gloss is key to ensuring high product quality, enhancing both performance and appearance.

Measuring the age of meteorites——Lutetium

Knowledge Column, Product Applications / By

Introduction Lutetium is a relatively rare chemical element. French scientist Georges Urbain, Austrian mineralogist Carl Auer von Welsbach, and American chemist Charles James independently discovered lutetium in the mineral yttria in 1907. The name “lutetium” derives from the Latin “Lutetia,” the ancient name for Paris. Lutetium is scarce in nature, primarily found alongside other rare …

The radiant light of rare elements —— Promethium (Pm)

Knowledge Column, Product Applications / By

Introduction Promethium (Pm) is element number 61 in the periodic table, a rare, radioactive element. Promethium is artificially synthesized and cannot be directly found in nature. Its radioactivity and rarity make its study and acquisition challenging. In the 1930s, chemists produced some unstable radioactive elements through nuclear reactions. In 1945, scientists Charles D. Coryell and …

Shining In the Fields of Optics and Medicine ── Europium

Knowledge Column, Product Applications / By

Introduction Europium (Eu) is found in most rare-earth minerals, but its separation was difficult, so it wasn’t isolated until the late 1800s. In 1885, William Crookes analyzed the spectra of rare elements and identified some “anomalous” spectral lines, later found to belong to europium. In 1892, Paul-Émile Lecoq de Boisbaudran first discovered europium by observing …

A Truly Hard-To-Obtain Element ── Dysprosium

Knowledge Column, Product Applications / By

Introduction Dysprosium was first isolated in 1886 by French chemist Paul Émile L. de Boisbaudran while studying erbium oxide in Paris. He named the new element “Dysprosium,” derived from the Greek word Dysprositos (δυσπρόσιτος), meaning “difficult to access,” highlighting its rarity. Dysprosium found in nature consists of seven isotopes: 156Dy, 158Dy, and 160Dy through 164Dy, …

Another Indistinguishable Twin – The Green-Emitting “Praseodymium”

Knowledge Column, Product Applications / By

Introduction In 1874, P. T. Cleve demonstrated that didymium was a mixture of at least two elements. It wasn’t until 1885 that C. A. von Welsbach successfully separated it into two new elements, praseodymium and neodymium. Since neodymium was more abundant in didymium than praseodymium, it retained the old name “didymium” with the prefix “neo,” …

The Famous Twin Rare Earth Element Mystery – The Powerful “Neodymium” Magnet

Knowledge Column, Product Applications / By

Introduction Neodymium was discovered in 1885 by Austrian chemist C. A. von Welsbach in Vienna. Interestingly, the name “Neodymium” comes from the Greek words “neos” (νέος), meaning “new,” and “didymos” (διδύμος), meaning “twin.” Naturally occurring neodymium consists of seven isotopes: stable isotopes 143Nd, 145Nd, 146Nd, 148Nd, the most common 142Nd, and long-lived primordial radioactive isotopes …

MRI Contrast Agents Containing Gadolinium: Medical Warnings Issued

Knowledge Column, Product Applications / By

Introduction Gadolinium was discovered in 1880 by Jean Charles G. de Marignac and named after gadolinite, the mineral from which it was derived. The mineral itself was named in honor of Finnish chemist J. Gadolin, recognizing his contributions to rare earth research. Like most rare earth elements, gadolinium’s main minerals are monazite and bastnaesite, making …

“Samarium” – Though Lacks a Legendary Story, Its Magnetic Power Ranks Just Below Neodymium Magnets

Knowledge Column, Product Applications / By

Introduction Samarium was first discovered in 1879 by French chemist Paul-Émile L. de Boisbaudran from the rare earth mineral samarskite, which was itself named in honor of Russian mining engineer Colonel Vasili Samarsky-Bykhovets for his contributions to mineralogy. Samarium has seven naturally occurring isotopes, including stable isotopes 144Sm, 149Sm, 150Sm, 152Sm, and 154Sm, as well …
