Etching
Etching is a process which involves creating a design in metal. The traditional etching process involves the use of strong acid or mordant to ‘cut’ into unprotected parts of a metal surface to create a design in intaglio (incised). However, nowadays etching encompasses a wide range of base materials as well as a vast array of chemicals used to etch. Etching is also used in microfabrication to chemically remove layers from the surface of a wafer during manufacturing. Etching is also a method of printmaking and is one of the most important techniques for old master prints. In a number of modern variations of etching (like as microfabrication etching and photochemical milling) it is a crucial technique in the development of technology, including circuit boards.
