Anodizing is a well-documented surface treatment that is inserted in a complex protection
system against corrosion applied to Al alloys. In the scientific literature, there are many …

Aluminium is a strongly electro-negative metal and possesses a strong affinity for oxygen;
this is apparent fi· om the high heat of formation of its oxide. For this reason, although it is …

Currently, an effective method of increasing the surface strength and heat resistance of the
piston bottom is the method of electrical deposition of chemical coatings based on various …

One of the promising methods of surface hardening of piston aluminum alloys–micro-arc
oxidation-is considered in the paper. This type of coating, formed under the influence of …

In this research work the classification of defects of castings obtained by electric arc smelting
is considered. Of particular interest to researchers is the rock-like and naphthalene fractures …

The article deals with the features of the formation of a stone-like fracture, which is formed at
an elevated temperature and enriched with partially soluble in austenite phases. They …

In the present study, the distribution of Ag in the coating formed on Mg-Ag alloy by plasma
electrolytic oxidation (PEO) and its ionic release kinetics when exposed to a 0.9 wt.% NaCl …

The anodic oxidation of aluminium alloys is reviewed and discussed with reference to recent
results of the authors on the anodizing of model binary aluminium alloys. Attention is given …

High strength is achieved in aluminum aircraft alloys by the presence of Cu as an alloying
element. However, copper is particularly deleterious to the corrosion behavior of Al alloys …

The average thickness and composition of the copper-enriched alloy layer that is present at
the alloy/oxide interface during anodic oxidation of an eleetropolished Al-0.9 al.% Cu alloy …
