Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2010119018A1] The present invention relates to a method for removing residue of a metallic salt-containing ionic fluid from a work piece, comprising the step of (a) treating at least part of the work piece surface with a treatment agent containing a metallic salt-free ionic fluid and/or an organic solvent, wherein the organic solvent is optionally a halogenated hydrocarbon or a mixture of two or more such hydrocarbons. The residue of the metallic salt-containing ionic fluid on the work piece may originate from an electrolyte bath and is, for example, EMIMClx1.5 AlCl3 (1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride containing aluminum chloride for the galvanic coating of metal work pieces with aluminum). After treating the work piece surface with an organic solvent (heptane, toluene, decalin, and the like), the lower phase located in the wash bath is returned from EMIMC1x1.5 AlCl3 to the electrolyte bath by phase separation.
