Research Summary

A gold etchant is a chemical solution used to selectively remove or dissolve gold from substrates or surfaces in a controlled manner. Gold etchants typically contain acids or complexing agents that react with the gold surface, breaking down the metal and allowing it to be removed from the substrate. The specific composition of a gold etchant may vary depending on the application and desired etching characteristics. Commonly used gold etchants include aqua regia (a mixture of nitric acid and hydrochloric acid), potassium iodide/iodine solutions, and cyanide-based solutions. Gold etchants are widely used in various industries, including electronics, microelectronics, semiconductor fabrication, jewelry manufacturing, and research laboratories, for processes such as circuit patterning, surface cleaning, metal removal, and surface modification. Proper handling and disposal procedures are essential when working with gold etchants due to their corrosive and potentially hazardous nature.
