Basic Information

Category:Material Specific
Composition:4g CuSO₄, 20ml HCl, 20ml H₂O
Concentration:Mixed
Reveals:Grain boundaries, gamma prime, carbides
Typical Results:Variant of Marble's reagent for nickel-niobium superalloys (Inconel 718, Rene 41). Lower copper-sulfate loading gives gentler attack appropriate for the precipitate-strengthened microstructure.
