Abstract

See full text

A method and a device (13) are disclosed for the electrolytic pickling of flat metal products (2), in particular special steel and/or carbon steel strips. At least one diamond electrode and/or at least one lead/tin electrode, for example a lead 93/tin7 electrode (15) is used. The special characteristic of the diamond electrodes and/or lead/tin electrodes is the form of water replacement. Whereas in electrolysis water is usually split into hydrogen and oxygen, the diamond electrode and/or lead tin electrode provides a working range in which ozone or highly reactive hydroxyl radicals are formed instead of oxygen. As a result the pickling times are significantly reduced in comparison to the conventional chemical descaling, and also in comparison to the conventional electrolytic pickling.
