Fluoride-containing scale can be removed from metal surfaces such as titanium, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, and stainless steel by contacting the metal surfaces with an aqueous salt solution of an inorganic acid, including its hydrates. The cationic portion of the salt can be aluminum, iron and mixtures thereof. The anionic portion of the salt can be a chloride, a nitrate, a sulfate, and mixtures thereof. The contracting occurs in the absence of the addition of an acid, such as hydrochloric, nitric, or sulfuric acid. The presence of the aqueous salt solution with the dissolved fluoride scale does not accelerate or increase the normal rate of metal corrosion that can occur in the absence of the aqueous salt solution or any acidic cleaning agent. |
