Electric Discharges in an Electrolyte-Bubble Medium of Ammonium Sulfate Solution in Tap Water at Atmospheric Pressure
摘要
Abstract
An experimental setup has been developed for studying electric discharge along a steel needle in an electrolyte-bubble medium of an ammonium sulfate solution in tap water, which has practical significance for cleaning and polishing medical devices. The current–voltage characteristics of the electric discharge under such conditions were studied. A mechanism for developing processes for cleaning and polishing medical stainless steel needles via immersion in a solution of ammonium sulfate in tap water has been established. It was found that electrical discharges at high of concentrations can damage the sharp end of a needle.
