Passivating oxide film and growing characteristics of anodic coatings on aluminium alloys

The paper studies some aspects of the behaviour of four aluminium alloys under chemical etching by sodium hydroxide solution and during their subsequent anodizing in sulphuric acid solution. A correspondence is seen between etching rate, thickness of the passivating oxide film and porosity of the an...

Sumario:The paper studies some aspects of the behaviour of four aluminium alloys under chemical etching by sodium hydroxide solution and during their subsequent anodizing in sulphuric acid solution. A correspondence is seen between etching rate, thickness of the passivating oxide film and porosity of the anodic layer. The possibility of an influence on these properties of precipitates and micro-heterogeneities in the metallic surface is suggested
