Abstract
In this paper we discuss influence of NaCl-electrolyzed reducing water (ER water) on the surface of high carbon steel. First, the characteristic of NaCl ER water and pure water for the comparative experiment was described. Next, the high carbon steel test pieces reviewed about the surface change such as the corrosion by the immersion processing to NaCl ER water water and pure water. The results show that pure water corrodes to the high carbon steel surface but NaCl ER water doesn't corrode. Also, when doing an immersion long to NaCl ER water, the alien substance which contains sodium mainly occurs. Moreover, when dry with drying oven after processing an immersion with ER water, alien substance occurs much, but with the centrifuge, the occurrence of alien substance can reduce. The study indicates that NaCl ER water can be applied to the surface treatment and washing of high carbon steel.
