  • REPLACEMENT PROCESS FOR FLUORIDE ION CLEANING

The process includes exposing the metal oxide product to a solution effective to remove a first portion of the metal oxide product from surfaces inside the crack. After the metal oxide product is exposed to the solution, the metal oxide product is heated to a temperature and in an atmosphere effective to remove a second portion of the thermal oxide product from the surfaces inside the crack. The cleaning process may be a substitute for fluoride ion cleaning.
