A dense inner layer is highly valued among the surface coatings created through plasma
electrolytic oxidation (PEO) treatment, because the PEO coating has been troubled by …

The 40/50V Bengough–Stuart chromic acid anodise process is widely used in demanding
applications as a prebond treatment. This process has a number of disadvantages and its …

The present study investigates the effect of tartaric acid on anodic film morphology and on
corrosion resistance of hydrothermally sealed anodized AA2024. Anodizing treatment was …

The influence of copper on the morphologies of porous anodic alumina has been
investigated under current and voltage control using a sputtering-deposited Al–2.7 at.% Cu …

Unclad and clad AA2024 T3 specimens were anodised in a chromium-free tartaric–
sulphuric acid bath (TSA) and subsequently postreated by different processes including …

The anodic film generated in acid electrolytes on high-purity aluminum shows a porous
morphology, formed by the packing of approximately hexagonal cells of alumina, containing …

Alumoxane film on anodized 2024 was obtained using stearic acid to prevent corrosion in a
chloride medium. A cleaning pretreatment was applied to the metal surface to improve the …

The deterioration of AA2024, AA6061 and AA7475 anodised in an environmentally-
compliant tartaric acid/sulphuric acid electrolyte has been examined as a function of the …

Sputtering-deposited Al–Cu alloy layers and an Al–Cu/Al bi-layer are used to investigate the
influences of copper on the morphology of porous anodic alumina films formed …

Using a tungsten-containing layer, incorporated into sputtering-deposited aluminium, as a
tracer, the growth of porous anodic films in malonic and oxalic acid electrolytes has been …
